“Christ leaves us free to accept or refuse His healing touch. Our cooperation with Christ’s healing action lays the Cross upon our hearts, freeing us to pour ourselves out in spendthrift generosity on those who need healing, not those who deserve it.”
Evelyn Underhill (1875-1941) in Evelyn Underhill: Spirituality for Daily Living, comp. Annice Callahan (Lanham, MD: University Press, 1997) 120.
