Series on The Ascension Lenten Companion by Fr. Mark Toups (Part 2)
How does a bridegroom love his bride? That is how Jesus loves each one of us. He meets us wherever we are in life to be our beloved and for us to be His. The Lord meets us in the desert, our place of poverty, where He betroths us to Him, and He betroths Himself to us.
