EverIaStinu Love.

Love is the greatest thing that God
can give us; for himself is love, and
it is the greatest thing we can give
God, for it will give ourselves, and car
ry with it all that is ours.
He that can say, Nothing shall sep
arate me from the love of God in
Christ" will be able to triumph in the
midst of the greatest tribulations. A
soul that lives under the assurance of
divine favor cannot but bear up patti
emily and quietly under the greatest
sufferings that possibly can befall in
the world. Love should be the SUI
preme thing because it is going to last,
because in the nature of things it is
eternal life.-Selected.
