My love for you is no joke, these words which Saint Angela Di Foligno (+1309) testified that Jesus has said to her, have been generalized by Stan Rougier in his book "Aime et tu vivras" (Love and you shall live). Rougier said: "let God convince you that His love for you is no joke". What did he mean by this generalization? He meant to reveal that God loves us all, one by one. The particular is our own. In this beautiful generalization, from the expression "there is no partiality with God" (Romans 2:11) it appears that He loves us all just as He loves His saints; rather, it appears that He is in need for our love, that He is infatuated and asking for an opportunity that we allow Him to convince us that He loves us. Have you ever heard Jesus confessing His love to you? Do not say: "No"! His humility is too great for Him to keep quiet about this confession uttered by Him, unto all people, on the Cross, in order to keep uttering it forever.
