Be a Gardener. Dig a ditch. Toil and sweat. And turn the earth upside down. And seek the deepness. And water plants in time. Continue this labor. And make sweet floods to run, and noble and abundant fruits to spring. Take this food and drink, and carry it to God as your true worship.
Julian of Norwich
Everything has being through the love of God.

When we, by the working of mercy and grace, be made meek and mild, we are fully safe suddenly is the soul oned to God when it is truly peaced in itself: for in Him is found no wrath.
Julian of Norwich
That love of God is hard and marvelous. It cannot and will not be broken because of our sins.
