So I recently finished reading He and I and am now moving on to St. Faustina's Diary. (I have a feeling that this will take a bit longer than the two months for He and I.) One thing struck me right away was how different the relationships I'm reading about are. Both women were very close to God and conversed with Him in a intimate way. Yet the way He speaks to them are so drastically different. His love is different. And His love continues to be discriminate.
He loves me in a unique way. The way He reaches out to me is not the same as any other person in existence or in history or in the future. He made me individual so He reaches out in the way that is best for me. And as I grow, so does He, like Aslan in the Narnia books. I can never outgrow God, even though at 20 I've outgrown other friends.
If you haven't read St. Faustina's Diary (which is intimidating in size) I think you should pick it up. Read a few lines. It is a beautiful love story.
Now I'm just waiting to read my own love story.
Pax Christi!
