"the love of charity must be universal"

And walk in love, as Christ loved us.  ~Ephesians 5:2

"...it is not in our power to have as tender and sweet an affection for those who tempers and dispositions are not in accordance with our own, as for others with whom we are in sympathy.  But that is nothing; it remains that the love of charity must be universal, and the signs and manifestations of our friendship must be impartial, if we wish to be true servants of God."  ~St. Francis de Sales, Spiritual Conference on Cordiality


Dear Lord, help me to love everyone as You love me.  Amen.
