369. There is an endeavor of the heavens to hold everything together

It was proven to me by an actual energy that came to my sensation, that there is such a process of shaping [366-68], and thus of maintaining, the inner organs of the body, consequently, an interaction of the whole heaven with each person. This interaction consists of an imperceptible endeavor of all; from endeavor, action arises, and from action, endeavor. 1747, the 20th day of December.
