Marriage #7

  
/ 126  
  

7. Conjugial love is love to the Lord

All who are in truly conjugial love are in love to the Lord, because it comes down from the Lord's marriage with the Church. This is why those who are in the third heaven, who are all in love to the Lord, are in truly conjugial love. Truly conjugial love cannot be conferred except by the Lord.
