TCR 44
That this is the nature of the Divine Love
is to be known from its sphere
which pervades the universe,
and affects every person
according to his mental state.
It particularly affects parents,
since it is this
which makes them dearly love their children,
who are other than themselves,
wish to be one with them,
and devote themselves to their happiness.
. . . That universal sphere especially affects those
who receive that love of God's into themselves,
and these are those
who believe in God and love the neighbor.
Charity in their case is an image of that love.
