I concur, Robert. We're certainly on the same page.
After Mass today, I was able to ask Fr. about it. It would appear the person who "penned" this was, indeed, very close to God. So much so, the Church has declared him to be both a Saint AND a Doctor of the Church. Impressive credentials, wouldn't you say? ;-)
The Source? Saint Francis de Sales.
'Nuff said!

Robert and Deb,
Thank you so much for your praiseworthy efforts. I'm sorry I had missed this post until now.
