Gerhard and Walther

The soul of a person is crafted in such a way that it cannot be without love—it has to love something. That’s why its better for it to love God, the Highest Good, rather than the earthly and the transitory.—Johann Gerhard, Schola Pietatis III:103.

Wherever the candle of the Gospel burns, there the Lord has a number of His own.—C. F. W. Walther, God Grant It!, p. 466.
