[b]Falling in Love

[/b][i]"Nothing is more practical than finding God,
that is, than falling in love in a quite absolute, final way.
What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination,
will affect everything.
It will decide what will get you out of bed in the mornings,
what you will do with your evenings,
how you spend your weekends,
what you read, who you know,
what breaks your heart,
and what amazes you with joy and gratitude.
Fall in love, stay in love,
and it will decide everything."
[/i]
~ Servant of God Pedro Arrupe, S.J.

Caveat: we need a catholic version of this song, I lovvvveee how it talks about falling in love with Jesus. But for Catholics, it's through the church- with a name, a faith, a creed! And I disagree that he says that the truth "moves". I know for many people on here though, they can remember how they started to fall in love with Jesus and His Church! :) We should be in love with the author of life!

My best friend, who entered the Carmelite Sisters of the Divine Heart of Jesus, had this on her Facebook profile. Truly inspiring! :love:
