"If love - real love - is a response to the love God has for us, then our inevitable response to God is surrender. God is God; we are not. His love is so pure that the only appropriate response to is is to receive it, to surrender. Surrender is 'an ongoing exodus out of the closed inward-looking self' so that our life is about God." page 173 of The Ascension Lenten Companion 2024
Our only response to God's love is an ongoing exodus out of the closed inward-looking self. That is something real to reflect on this Holy Week!
