St. John Chrysostom: God's love and our selfishness


 Let us now be abashed at His love, let us be ashamed at the excess of His lovingkindness, since He for our sakes spared not His Only-begotten Son, yet we spare our wealth to our own injury; He for us gave His Own Son, but we for Him do not so much as despise money, nor even for ourselves.
+St. John Chrysostom, from Homily 17 on John 3:12-13, #3
