Quote of the day: 6 April

The story of Jesus is the story of God among us. In his death on the cross, God reveals himself without power or beauty, silent so as not to condemn anyone, with his arms open to embrace everyone without exception, forgiving us and loving us to the end. There, God reveals himself to us in the purest and most unfathomable aspect of his mystery, as love and love alone.
