From our Father in God among the saints, Mar Isaac of Nineveh

In love did God bring the world into existence; in love does He guide it during its temporal existence; in love is He going to bring it to that wondrous transformed state , and in love will the world be swallowed up in the great mystery of Him Who has performed all these things. In love will the whole course of the governance of creation be finally comprised.

#144 (Keph XXXVII.2) As translated by Sebastian Brock in The Wisdom of St. Isaac the Syrian published by SLG Press, 1997
