Ever-Deepening Oneness Is Only Bounded By Eternity. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

Like all human love
at its most profound,
and at its most perfect,
it desires an ongoing
and ever-deepening
oneness that is only
bounded by eternity.

When, on the night
before he died, Jesus said,
‘Do you not believe that
I am in the Father and
the Father is in me? '
Jesus Christ was describing
that love as it is in heaven.

All love that is
briefly glimpsed
in human love,
finds its ultimate
consummation
in God's love.

The pure love that binds
lovers together
is the stuff that
heaven is made of.
