St. John of the Cross
1 Corinthians 2:1-10 Luke 14:25-33

The Father’s love created all that is and is continually creating. Issuing from His love I, the Firstfruit of His loving, was with Him from the beginning and became the power of His re-creation. In time I entered in the world created for the sons of men and lived a human life in all its limitations and potential. My life, My death, My risen live are a revelation of eternal love and power to fulfil the Father’s loving purpose.

That purpose is to bring the sons and daughters of His love into the joy and glory of His Presence. Through the love and self-giving of the Father and the Son this is offered to every child of man in the power of Our Holy Spirit and fulfilled through the love and self-giving of the seeker after truth in the grace and power of My indwelling. The cost is total, the reward beyond all that the human mind and heart could conceive in a million light years.
