It is not forever that I reject man. It is not forever that I turn my face from you. In an outburst of anger, I hid my face from you for a moment. But with everlasting kindness I will have compassion on you. In the abundance of my love, I correct, yet still, I show my compassion. For my anger lasts but a little while, and my kindness all through life. I teach you and show you the way to follow. Consider the heavens, the work of my hands, the moon and the stars set in their place- consider how much more that I be mindful of you, that I care for you! I will show you the path of life, in my presence the fullness of joy, at my right hand happiness forever. Through my Spirit, I give strength to your inner self, according to the riches of my glory. May Christ dwell in your heart through faith; may you be rooted and founded in love. All of this that you may understand with all the holy ones how wide and how long and how high and how deep is my love for you. 05.05.24
