He commands us to love him with all our strength so that neither thought of his majesty and of our misery, which makes so infinite a disparity and inequality between him and us, nor any other pretext would turn us away from loving him. (God) gives stronger expression of his passionate love for us. How often has (God) given you his Sacraments? How many times inspirations, interior lights, and warnings to correct you? How often has (God) forgiven you your sins? Consider for a short while, in detail, how gentle and loving God has been to you. For this he has given you the understanding to know him, the memory to remember him, the will to love him, the imagination to represent to yourself his blessings, the eyes to see the wonders of his work, the tongue to praise him. ![]() ![]() God has placed you in this world to use his goodness for you, by giving you his grace and his glory. Consider the kind of being God has made you: the first in the visible world, capable of everlasting life and of perfect union with (God). ![]()
