“By his gracious condescension God became man and is called man for the sake of man and by exchanging his condition for ours revealed the power that elevates man to God through his love for God and brings God down to man because of his love for man.

“Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.”
