Since we received a command to love God, we possess from the first
moment of our existence an innate power and ability to love…What, I ask, is
more wonderful than the beauty of God? What thought is more pleasing and
wonderful than God’s majesty? What desire is as urgent and overpowering as the
desire implanted by God in a soul that is completely purified of sin and cries
out in its love: I am wounded by love? The radiance of divine beauty is
altogether beyond the power of words to describe.
Saint Basil the Great
