abiding love, our only truth

He who has gone, so we but cherish his memory, abides with us,
more potent, nay, more present than the living man.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

“However strong the branch becomes, however far away it reaches round the home,
out of sight of the vine, all its beauty and all its fruitfulness
ever depend upon that one point of contact where it grows out of the vine.
So be it with us too.”
Andrew Murray, Holy in Christ: A Devotional Look at Your Life
