I wish to love God…

I wish to love God. I wish always to be with God, and to do everything for the love of God. The center of all love for God consists in giving ourselves entirely to God by being in all things conformable to the divine will, and remaining in this conformity for all eternity.
— Saint Gerard Majella (1726-1755)

Divine love flows on and on…

The great flood of divine love never ceases. Instead, it flows on and on without stopping. It flows on and on effortlessly and sweetly and without failing until, finally, our tiny vessel becomes full and spills over.
–Mechthild of Magdeburg (1208-1282)
