Nothing is more practical than finding God,
that is, than falling in love.
In a quite absolute, final way, what you are in love with,
what seizes your imagination, will affect everything.
It will decide what will get you out of bed in the morning,
what you do with your evenings,
how you spend your weekend,
what you read, who you know, what breaks your heart,
and what amazes you with joy and gratitude.
Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide everything.
– Attributed to Pedro Arrupe. S.J.
This beautiful verse was sung at the Easter Vigil Mass at Santa Clara Mission. I’ve heard it a million times but for some reason this night I heard it in a different way. And I fell in love. <3
