“When later he [St. Joseph] carried the Child in his arms, acts of loving faith welled up constantly in his heart. It was a worship that pleased our Lord more than that which he receives in heaven. Picture to yourself Saint Joseph, adoring the little Child in his arms as his God. He tells of his readiness to die for Christ, of all his plans to promote Christ's glory, and to win more souls to his love. No lover builds more scintillating plans for his loved one than a saint.” HeartChildrenLittlesSoulDiesWinningHeavenChristLordPlansArmsLoversWorshipGlorySaintLoved OnesSacramentsHis LoveOur LordReadiness Author:Peter Julian Eymard

“When we really want to hear, and be heard by, someone we love, we do not go rushing into noisy crowds. Silence is a form of intimacy. That's how we experience it with our friends and lovers. As relationships grow deeper and more intimate, we spend more and more quiet time alone with our lover. We talk in low tones about the things that matter... That is why Christ comes to us when our hearts and minds are still and silent.” WantMindHeartStillsMatterFormGrowsChristSilenceHeardLoversQuietLowsSilentCrowdsDeeperIntimacyIntimateToneSilence IsHeart And MindMe AloneRushingNoisyThings That MatterAlone TimeQuiet TimeLovers And Friends Author:J.

“There seems to be something poetically that doesn't work or is limiting when you call God 'God' in a poem. When I tried to be honest with myself in my relationship with God, Christ is, on the one hand, completely dark, he's transcendent and unknown. On the other hand, he is completely imminent and completely knowable as Jesus. Our tradition speaks of him in both ways as transcendent but also as a lover who comes to us, and the two word 'Dark One' seem to me to contain both things, the transcendence and otherness of Christ, but also like a kind of dark lover who comes to us.” WayKindTwoHandsSeemsJesusSpeakChristDarkHonestLoversTraditionBeing HonestTranscendenceTranscendentRelationship With GodOtherness Author:Kevin Hart

“Faith, Hope & Love. Faith is directed towards God, love towards others (both within the Christian fellowship and beyond it) and hope towards the future, in particular, the glorious coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Similarly, faith rests of the past; love works in the present; hope looks to the future. Every Christian without exception is a believer, a lover and a hoper. Faith, hope and love are three sure evidences of regeneration by the Holy Spirit.” LooksChristianPastSpiritThreeJesusChristLordParticularLoversHolyEvidenceJesus ChristAnd LoveBelieverGod LoveHoly SpiritGloriousExceptionFellowshipOur LordLord Jesus ChristRegenerationHope And LoveFaith HopeLooking To The FutureOur Lord Jesus ChristFaith In LovePast LoveHope LoveFaith Hope And LoveChristian FellowshipFaith Hope Love Book:The Message of Thessalonians Source: The Message of Thessalonians
