“Do you see that the love of God is intertwined with our own and connected like a sort of chain? Thus, it sometimes says that there are two commandments, sometimes only one. For it is not possible that the one who has taken hold of the first should not possess the second also.”
St. John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of John 77.1
You are my friends
if you love one another as I love you.
If the snail is such good friends with the tulips, imagine the great love God has for each of us as we are called friends of Christ!
