"His sheep will find pasture, because whoever follows Jesus with a simple heart is nourished with food from eternal fields.
Which are the pastures of these sheep - are not they the spiritual joys of heaven where spring is eternal?
The ever present face of God is pasture of the elected.
When it is constantly contemplated, it satisfies the soul with never ending food."
Gregory the Great, Homilia in Evangelium 14, 3-6, PL 76, 1 |
