In an existence full of attentiveness and of kindness of heart. And Christ himself will become our life. Then the night becomes dense, His love is a fire. Then what was glowing underneath the ashes bursts into flame. And even the thorns of the past feed that flame.
Nothing is more harrowing than the break-up of a deep human affection.
Sometimes the heart no longer knows where it's at. To protect itself, to suffer less, it may become hardened. When Christ was rejected, he did not rebel. And it is this Christ that we are following. Jesus our peace, if our lips keep silence, our heart listens to you and also speaks to you.
