in the black file of our soul. And while Christ longingly embraces all His creatures, we

We cancel them with great zeal, just as the ticket collector cancels train tickets.

However, the good Lord always has him

His way of condescendingly becoming our dustbin and accepting into His warm and scandalous love what we reject and reject as useless.
