Since love is a powerful irresistible matter and not a mere word, let us declare it through our deeds. He made peace with us while we were His enemies. Now that we have become His friends let us abide so in His love. He led the way, let us then at least follow Him.

You Yourself care for my footsteps and my ways day and night, watching all my paths, never forsaking me. I can say that You may probably forget heaven and earth, with all that are in and on them, concentrating Your care on me! You watch on me, as though you forgot the whole creation!

Why are we living? Why are we breathing? What would it be for us, if we fail to behold our Lord? If those who cannot see the light of the sun count life as being worse than death, so what would it be for those who are deprived of beholding the light of the Lord?
