“At the happiest of times, and in the best of frames below, our love to God is but a spark (though small and quivering, yet inestimably precious, because Divinely kindled, fanned and maintained in the soul, and an earnest of better to come); whereas love, as it glows in God, is an immense sun, which shone without beginning, and shall shine without end.”  (Jerome Zanchius; 1516-1590)
