God Himself Draws Us In A Flight Of The Spirit Poem by Genova Maaa my mother

„Our duty is to love God: our fruition is to endure God
and be penetrated by his love.
There is the same difference between love
and fruition as there is between God and His Grace.

When we unite ourselves to God by love,
then we spiritualize ourselves: but when He Himself draws us in a flight of the spirit, and transforms us in His Spirit, then, so to speak, we are fruition.

And the spirit of God Himself pushes us out from Himself by His breath, in order that we may love, and may do good works; and again He draws us to Himself, in order that we may repose in peace and in fruition. And this is eternal life, even as our bodily life subsists
in the indrawing and outgoing of our breath„
