The present volume, which first appeared in 1976, contains Adrienne von Speyr’s meditations on the essence and action of love. These meditations reflect her special concern for the interplay of the natural and the supernatural in the Christian experience of love. Just as God’s love becomes “earthly” in the Son, the same Son takes our earthly love and “transforms it into something capable of being launched into the unlimited, where, invisibly to us, it meets the limitless Father.”
