“And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.” Jn 3:14-15


whether a belief is actuated

feverishly out of fear from the mind

perfunctorily as a duty on the lips

or laboriously from the loving heart

each will be rewarded accordingly
