Abba: Quicken in us a longing for the living and eternal Word of God, through whom we receive the wound of love so to ponder the beauty and grace of all things created by thy Word, through whom all things have come into being. This wound of love humbles us to tears, not so much in pain, but in sorrow: grieving sin and delighting in mercy. This is the wound of love, the only wound that need not ever heal; whose symbol is the cross and whose image is the descending dove. Amen.
