Love is an intensification of life, a completeness, a fullness, a wholeness of life.
Love is our true destiny. We do not find the meaning of life by ourselves alone—we find it with another. We do not become fully human until we give ourselves to another in love.
We will never be fully real to ourselves or another until we let ourselves fall fully in love—either with another human being or with God.
Genuine love is a personal revolution—it transforms our entire life.
(This narrative is lifted from Thomas Merton's reflections on love.)
Ephesians 3:19 "and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God."
