His own Response:

I know that you love me very much. This is certain. And I believe that, every day, every night, you enter into my heart, and from there you leave and enter into the hearts of those persons who love. And we rejoice, we are loved. We enter into our heart, and you enter into yours. But yours is more, more.

Because this is what God wants, what He wants from us. This heart. What is there? The Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit, This is the most beautiful thing, such that we know, that I live, you live; I want, you rejoice.

To the beloved, my beloved, with this joy that we give you, and you give much more than we do.
