“A heart without exits”

“My heart only has entrances. It doesn’t have exits. Whoever enters remains there. Whatever he may do, I love him the same as I loved him when he first entered into my heart.” (Elder Epiphanios of Athens).

This is a heart, as Father Stephen observes, like the heart of God, burning more fiercely with love for His children than do our own hearts for our children.
