[Manna - February 29]
God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 1 John 4:16
JUSTICE fills the measure full, but love shakes it,
presses it down, heaps it up and overflows justice.
It
is therefore something not to be demanded, nor its
lack to be complained of, but to be gratefully appreciated
as a favor and to be generously reciprocated.
Every one who craves it at all should crave it in its
highest sense—the sense of admiration and reverence.
But this sort of love is the most costly, and the only
way to secure it is to manifest that nobility of character
which calls it forth from others who are truly
noble. Z.'02-266 R3071:1
