“The kenosis of the Son reveals the mystery of God who is Love. This gift of life is an extension of a mysterious exchange at the heart of the Deity. In God himself the One does not exclude the Other, it includes it. The Unity of God is so complete, so rich, that it is not solitude enclosed in itself, but rather the fullness of communion. And thereby, the source of all communion.” HeartDoeLife IsRichMysterySonSourceSolitudeUnityMysteriousCommunionExtensionsDeitiesFullnessGifts Of LifeMystery Of God Author:Olivier Clement

“Somehow the pain, the losses, the hurt, the bad, God is able to transform these into something they could have never been, icons and monuments of grace and love. It is the deep mystery how wounds and scars can become precious, or a ravaging and terrifying cross the essential symbol of relentless affection.” “Is it worth it?” whispered Tony. “Wrong question, son. There is no ‘it.’ The question is and has always been, ‘Are you worth it?’ and the answer is and always, ‘Yes!’” AblePainHurtLossAnswersGraceMysterySonEssentialsCrossesAnd LoveAffectionWoundsSymbolsScarWorth ItMonumentRelentlessIconsGod Is AbleGrace And LoveWounds And ScarsIs It Worth It Author:William P.
