The word Reich pertains to a connection of the people and of God in which the sins of mankind are so abundant in everyday life.

God is the one in charge, and if we fall or fail, we are granted that we can get back up and keep trying. After all, being a human and living with sin needs somebody with some compassion, caring, and understanding.
