In God's Hands Quotes

“As man–creature He becomes a servant, for each man is God’s servant. This is the order of creation, the order of justice. Christ comes to renew this service (since man had rejected it), and therefore He undertakes this service Himself.”
― Pope Saint John Paul II, In God's Hands: The Spiritual Diaries of Pope John Paul II

“It is not possible to understand original sin without reference to the fullness of givenness – that is, love. Original sin is a refusal to partake in love, in the good of all creation coming from love, and above all, in the good of love itself. In this sense, it is the loss of grace.”
