Through him who loves us

“What will separate us from the love of Christ? Will anguish, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword? As it is written:
For your sake we are being slain all the day; we are looked upon as sheep to be slaughtered. No, in all these things we conquer overwhelmingly through him who loved us.” (ROM 8: 35-37)

“The love of Christ” is stronger than anything else in this world, and no “anguish, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword” can separate us from His love. And it is always about Him and His love and not about us and our ability to love. He always expects from us the best, but He is the One who makes this love possible and consistent.

“Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord. Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” (Gospel Acclamation)
