All for God

Omnia pro Deo, or "All for God", reveals the thoughts and observations of one who is on a spiritual journey. This journey is of the Order of the Present Moment, in which the moments have unfolded throughout a life drawing closer to God. A spiritual journal includes thoughts and emotions, but also the physical interactions in the temporal world as this world intersects with the supernatural world of the soul.

Friendships All for God 

 Aristotle talks about the three kinds of friendship... friends for
the shear pleasure of being in the others presence... 2nd ... mutual
benefit  ... (therapeutic could fit here)  ... and finally friends
solely for the benefit of the other (this would be mutual -- the highest
form  ... the kind of friend that Christ is to us... and we are
challenged to be for Him)

Friendship is that of meeting Christ in the other, of considering the friend as Christ and treating the friend accordingly.
