The Revelations of Mechthild of Magdeburg (The Flowing Light of the Godhead) · 32 of 59

Between God and the Soul only Love

’Twixt God and thee but love shall be, ’Twixt earth and thee distrust and fear, ’Twixt sin and thee shall be hate and war, And hope shall be ’twixt heaven and thee, Till night is o’er.
