Christ’s public life extended only over three years, and for this he had been silently training his mind for around thirty years.

I want you to enjoy life together with me.

...Love Christ and put nothing before His Love. He is joy, He is life, He is light. Christ is Everything. He is the ultimate desire, He is everything. Everything beautiful is in Christ.
