Love is our true nature and the true direction of our development. It is the direction in which we must always be growing. And all of that, we may accept – and it may sound inspiring when we reflect upon it – but it presents us with the problem, the challenge, of how it is actually lived. We may believe it, but how do we live it? To what degree do we regard the relationships of our lives, all the relationships of our lives, as the sacred ground of God; as the sacraments of God, and as the means we are given of realising our destiny in God?
(Aspects of Love 2 by Laurence Freeman OSB )
