When someone opens their heart to Him, God the Father touches His joyful child, in a marvellous 'custody' and communion, where He allows Himself to be 'captive' to His earthly creature.

Christ was seated on a Heavenly throne, within our Sanctuary. Christ our God is worthy of the sufferings we bear for love of Him.

Our God is like a blazing fire. Into that life and light we hope to enter. Christ leads us to that perfection.

Christ looks with contentment on the life of one who is reconciled, who is like an unblemished fruit.

At the merest scrap of true contrition in prayer, it is as though we touch God, who pours down His forgiveness like rain.
