“Love those God gives you, and allow yourself to be loved by those God gives you to.”
“By calling God "Father", the language of faith indicates two main things: that God is the first origin of everything and transcendent authority; and that he is at the same time goodness and loving care for all his children. God's parental tenderness can also be expressed by the image of motherhood, which emphasizes God's immanence, the intimacy between Creator and creature. The language of faith thus draws on the human experience of parents, who are in a way the first representatives of God for man. But this experience also tells us that human parents are fallible and can disfigure the face of fatherhood and motherhood.” Catechism of the Catholic Church, 239. - https://www.usccb.org/sites/default/files/flipbooks/catechism/64/
“The Home is the seminary for marriage and family life.”
“The “affirmation of the person” is nothing other than welcoming the gift, which, through reciprocity, creates the communion of persons; this communion builds itself from within,” Pope St. Pope John Paul II, audience 1/16/80 - https://www.vatican.va/content/john-paul-ii/en/audiences/1980/documents/hf_jp-ii_aud_19800116.html
