These three are at the heart of Christian discipleship. They are the height, length, breadth and depth of relationship with God. They describe the development of God’s life within us through the Spirit. There is no other begin- ning in God but love. God “is” and “does” love. It is love that continu- ally draws us into being. It is love that leads God to become one with us in Christ, to invite us into re- lationship. It is the Holy Spirit of love that burns within, leading us deeper into God and drawing us into God’s active compassion for all. Faith and hope are the fruit of love: Faith is the choice made to trust God with what is important to us.
