I want to give to you
Father Bill Kottenstette always told us to think of the person in the world who loves us best -- we could know from their visible love for us that God loves us at least that much and more and more perfectly, because God is God. The same, he said, is true for the person in the world we love best -- we know God loves us and them at least that much and more and more perfectly. I always loved that and still think back on it, especially when I need to be reminded with physical evidence of the love of an invisible God. We are sacramentals for each other; as the body of Christ and as images of God, we help each other see and believe the love God has for us.
