But it is nevertheless true that we are made to “have dominion” within an appropriate domain of reality. This is the core of the likeness or image of God in us and is the basis of the Destiny for which we were formed. We are, all of us, never-ceasing spiritual beings with the unique eternal calling to count for good in God’s great universe.

Our “kingdom” is simply the range of effective will. Whatever we genuinely have the say over is in our kingdom. Lead our having to say over something is precisely what place is it within our kingdom. And our having the say over something is precisely what place is it within our kingdom. In creating human beings God made them to rule, to reign, to have dominion in a limited sphere. Only so can they be persons.

Any being that has say over nothing at all is no person. We only have to imagine what that would be like to see that this is so. Such persons would not even be able to command their own body or their own thoughts they would be reduced to completely passive observers who account for nothing, who makes no difference…

. . . We are meant to exercise our “rule” only in union with God, as he acts with us. He intended to be a constant companion or coworker in the creative enterprise of life on earth. That is what his love for us means in practical terms.

Now, what we can do by our unassisted strength is very small. What we can do acting with mechanical, electrical, or atomic power is much greater. Often what can be accomplished is so great that it is hard to believe or imagine without some experience of it. But what we can do with these means is still very small compared to what we could do acting in union with God himself, who created and ultimately controls all other forces.

. . . But at the same time our fundamental makeup is unchanged. The deepest longings of our heart confirm our original calling. Our very being still assigns the “rule” in our life circumstances, whatever they may be.63
