St. John Chrysostom
“Nothing is so great as love; for love is the bond of perfection.”
Beloved, let us love one another,
because love is of God.
Traditional Chinese Translation
各位蒙愛的人哪，讓我們彼此相愛，
因為愛是出於神的。
God is Love, Day 1

Dear GMC, thank you for your Garden and Scripture verse reflections. I still use them in my reverence of Scripture. Today’s post reminded me of Henri Nouwen and what he said about being God’s beloved: to be the “Beloved” constitutes the core of our identity — that you and I are God’s sons and daughters. Love and gratitude from a sister in Christ for all you do to bring and sustain God’s love in the world.
Thank you for your beautiful reflection and response. Our true identity as God’s beloved transforms our whole world!
