"All these people I'd come to love and who loved me in return, showed me, as I showed them, the love of God…..in my view, God himself within us. This was, as FOD put it, a "holy promiscuity" with the many faces of Jesus we all see every day." We are made in His image, Ford. If He can love the worst among us (I speak in human terms - only humans deem one sin greater than another. To God, we are all the same), we can do the same. But until we learn to love ourselves the way God does, we will never love our fellow man the same way God does. Peace be with you Rex Infinity |
