And thus I saw that God rejoices that he is our father, and God rejoices that he is our mother, and God rejoices that he is our spouse and that our soul is his loved wife. And Christ rejoices that he is our brother, and Jesus rejoices that he is our Saviour. These are five particular joys, as I understand, in which he wills that we find joy; him praising, him thanking, him loving and him endlessly blessing.
