DLW 218, 220, 230 - motion, action of hands, useful endeavor itself

DLW 218
. . . because motion is the final degree of endeavor,
it is through motion that endeavor exerts its power.

DLW 220
. . . the angels who are present with a person . . .
know merely from any action done through the hands
what a person is like in regard to his intellect and will,
and so in regard to his charity and faith,
thus in regard to the inner life which is the life of his mind,
and in regard to the outward life which results from that in the body.

DLW 230
. . . because the Lord is love itself and wisdom itself,
therefore He is also useful endeavor itself.
For love has as its end a useful result,
which it produces through wisdom.
