“It is by the Holy Spirit that we love those who are united to us in CHRIST. The more plentifully we have received of the Spirit of CHRIST, the more perfectly we are able to love them: and the more we love them the more we receive the Spirit. It is clear, however, that since we love them by the Spirit Who is given to us by JESUS, it is JESUS Himself Who loves them in us.” ― Thomas Merton
