And yet, he loves you more...

Dive into God like into the sea. Never let yourself be disturbed. Neither by the fact that your physical strength is limited, nor by the sight of your inner wretchedness: do not look at your wounds with your own eyes, for that would let the infection from them enter your soul. Examine them in the eyes of Jesus; He sees you as you are, and yet He loves you more than you could ever understand on this earth.

(Cardinal Charles Journet /1891–1975/, correspondence)
