The Way
John 15: 12-13 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
Genesis 9:16
And the bow shall be in the clouds, and I shall see it, and shall remember the everlasting covenant, that was made between God and every living soul of all flesh which is upon the earth.

"To fall in love with God is the greatest of romances, to seek Him the greatest adventure, to find Him the greatest human achievement."
“It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels.”
"He that is kind is free, though he is a slave;
he that is evil is a slave, though he be a king. "
“Since love grows within you, so beauty grows. For love is the beauty of the soul.”

"...Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armour of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armour of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled round your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God." (Eph 6:10-17 NIV)

Translation:
When Christ was a child, He had a garden
and many roses He grew therein...
Three times a day He did water them,
for He planned to weave Himself a wreath someday.
When the roses came into full bloom,
He summoned the neighborhood Hebrew children,
they each plucked a flower, and the garden was bare.
"How will you weave yourself a wreath?" they asked.
"Your garden has no more roses in it."
"You have forgotten the thorns are left for me," Christ said.
And from the thorns they pleated Him a prickly wreath;
and drops of blood, instead of roses, adorned his brow.
- Poem by A Pleshcheyev
Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
- Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
- Congregavit nos in unum Christi amor.
- Exultemus, et in ipso jucundemur.
- Timeamus, et amemus Deum vivum.
- Et ex corde diligamus nos sincero.
- Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
- Simul ergo cum in unum congregamur:
- Ne nos mente dividamur, caveamus.
- Cessent iurgia maligna, cessent lites.
- Et in medio nostri sit Christus Deus.
- Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
- Simul quoque cum beatis videamus,
- Glorianter vultum tuum, Christe Deus:
- Gaudium quod est immensum, atque probum,
- Saecula per infinita saeculorum. Amen.
