“Are you satisfied in God? … Our ability to truly love is based upon what satisfies us.”
-Jason Upton, reflecting on the end of Matthew 5:6
“God is in his essence, his reality, holy, free sovereign love.”
-Otto Weber
“When I have learnt to love God better than my earthly dearest, I shall love my earthly dearest better than I do now. In so far as I learn to love my earthly dearest at the expense of God and instead of God, I shall be moving towards the state in which I shall not love my earthly dearest at all. When first things are put first, second things are not suppressed, but increased.”
-C.S. Lewis, Letters of C.S. Lewis
