GOD is LOVE.

In today’s Regina Coeli, Pope Francis called the love of Christ ‘a fundamental attitude of the heart.’ We might ask ourselves then: ‘What is the attitude of my heart today?’, while remembering: LOVE shows no partiality.  

We must serve
to the end
live the truth
and rout them all by friendship
To win the human heart
there is only
LOVE.
(C. Lebreton)

Love, it is you who reveal to me that other cheek—my best profile—the one that belongs to eternity, and it will be the only one without any possible duplicity or ambivalence. 
The other cheek: my profile of hope.
May I contemplate it in every man and woman.
It is yourself on the face of every living person.
It is the other check that a kiss reveals,
my face of light
that your gaze illumines.
(C. Lebreton, Born from the Gaze of God, p. 177)

REMAIN IN MY LOVE.
