It's not easy to explain. I mean, in all practicality, "how could one possibly love another who've hurt one's very dignity and essence?" would probably be the first thought running in your head seeing me glow in happiness like this. And note, in loving glow! Haha!
But the thing is, Grace has arrived. Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal has lobbied my prayers, changing me in the process! Thank you Mama Mary! Praise be My God who loves me so much!
To put it simply, here's a poem by Genevieve Glen, O.S.B. from the 2011 WYD Pilgrim's Booklet that perfectly explains what I'm feeling and experiencing for the last 6 days...
Love that bears another's burden,
Love that shares another's pain,
Love that heeds another's struggle,
Love that seeks another's gain:
Love like this reveals Christ Jesus
As the Law that will remain.
Love that hears another's weeping,
Love that dries another's tears,
Love that spares another's sorrow,
Love that calms another's fears:
Love like this reveals Christ Jesus
As God's mercy down the years.
Love that offers first forgiveness,
Love that soon forgets a wrong,
Love that laughs in all rejoicing,
Love that sings in ev'ry song:
Love like this reveals Christ Jesus
As the Heart where we belong
I'm experiencing the Love of God as I bask in the Light of Christ!
May His Light, through His Passion on the Cross, lead me throughout the rest of my days...
Crux Sacra Sit Mihi Lu!
