Every creature, everything in nature, every man was given existence to freely receive and share in the love, happiness and goodness of the Deity. From eternity to eternity His uninhibited will is to communicate love and peace. He cannot be anything else than an ocean of love and intends nothing towards His creation save all goodness, in them and by them, because He can be nothing toward the creature but that which He is, an unchangeable disposition of love and kindness. Whether we consider happiness, perfection, bliss or delight, it is all in the immutable Father, because the infinitely perfect and happy God is mere love, an unchangeable will to all goodness. No word, no sensation, no exposition can ever overstate or go beyond the limits of the Father’s infinite love which He yearns to reveal to everything created and into which He calls every man to freely partake. (Inspired by William Law; The Spirit of Love)
