Love does not get wrong  Grace’ s History of a true natural affection
 « There is a place where love never fails to be present: in my home». This is the beautiful statement of Grace of her own experience of natural affection. What is love? « It is the unconditional love which I have seen my parents demonstrate to one another and to my siblings and myself for twenty-one years», Grace says. She is a fitness of a love which grows over time, getting better and better within a more and more stronger faith on God. Love in the Saving Grace is a fortitude «for better and for worse, for richer and for poorer, in sickness and in health ». This the Grace’ s experience of a communion of real love which is described by the Apostle Paul in his First Letter to the Corinthians (13:4-8): «Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, bit rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things and endures all things. Love never ends». These are first words of Saint Paul in the Letter (13:1-3): «If I speak with the eloquence of men and of angels but have no love, I become no more than blaring brass or crashing cymbal. If I have the gift of foretelling the future and hold in my mind not only all human knowledge but the very secrets of God, and if I also have that absolute faith which can move mountain, but have no love, I amount to nothing at all. If I dispose of all that I possess, yes, even if I give my own body to be burned, but have no love, I achieve precisely nothing».
