Marriage is the mother proverb

 Marriage is the mother of the world. It preserves kingdoms, and fills cities and churches, and heaven itself.
  Jeremy Taylor

 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

 The trouble with kingdoms of heaven on earth is that they're liable to come to pass, and then their fraudulence is apparent for all to see. We need a kingdom of heaven in Heaven, if only because it can't be realized.
  Malcolm Muggeridge

 Then I became a mother and it just fills every space, that isn't filled with something else important. It's just like this incredible balloon that blows up and fills life up.

 [Or if getting to heaven were all about] being a good person, ... surely you could join all sorts of churches or charitable organizations that could improve your benevolence and good works in the community. But those things have nothing to do with getting to heaven.

 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; / That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners? / All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house.

 But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? / And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! / For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

 I think the Mother is gradually revealing itself to me and taking over. But it is not the Mother alone. It is the Mother and the Father, the male and the female, sort of gradually having their marriage.

 O Heaven! were man But constant, he were perfect: that one error - Fills him with faults
  William Shakespeare

 He wasn't interested in superficial connections, seeking genuine rapport, which made him pe𝑥y. Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven; / And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.

 For, lo, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, saith the LORD; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entering of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the walls thereof round about, and against all the cities of Judah.

 No one understands my ills, nor the terror that fills my breast, who does not know the heart of a mother.
  Marie Antoinette

 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: / And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.

 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.

 Just as the soul fills the body, so God fills the world. Just as the soul bears the body, so God endures the world. Just as the soul sees but is not seen, so God sees but is not seen. Just as the soul feeds the body, so God gives food to the world.
