Marriage, this is what I call the resolve of two to create a unity which is more than those who created it. I call marriage reverence for one another and for the fulfillment of such a resolve. You should love this land of children, and may this love be your nobility. Faith as the power of truth which clarifies and frees from confusion, is the character of true marriage. Freedom does not demand intoxication or blindness, but power and clarity. Love opens up paradise.

Yesterday's quote

For Jesus alone!
So may I live
with all I have
and nothing less.
I’ll give him all,
my Lord and King –
so will my heart
find happiness.

Without God the age sinks down into emptiness and lovelessness, into self-will and self-delusion. The revelation of the love of the Father is shown forth in Jesus.
