Glory be to Him Who never felt the need of our praising Him; yet felt the need as being kind to us and thirsted as loving us and asks us to give to Him and longs to give to us. His fruit was mingled with us men that in Him we might come near to Him Who condescended to us. By the Fruit of His stem He grafted us into His Tree.

When you begin to read or listen to the Holy Scriptures pray to God thus: Lord Jesus Christ open the ears and eyes of my heart so that I may hear Thy words and understand them and may fulfill Thy will. Always pray to God like this that He might illumine your mind and open to you the power of His words. Many having trusted in their own reason have turned away into deception.
