Please tell me, you whom I love, where do you graze your flock? Where does your flock lie down at noon? ⌞Tell me,⌟ or I will be considered a prostitute ⌞wandering⌟ among the flocks of your companions.
“The person who loves his father or mother more than me does not deserve to be my disciple. The person who loves a son or daughter more than me does not deserve to be my disciple.
Whoever knows and obeys my commandments is the person who loves me. Those who love me will have my Father’s love, and I, too, will love them and show myself to them.”
