God is love, meek and mild - quote from Julian of Norwich

This quote was at the beginning of a chapter on a book on the history of the Sacrament of Reconciliation that I just read entitled The Dark Box.  I really like this quote and really liked this book as well:

"Nothing could be more impossible than that God should be wrath.  For wrath and friendship are two contraries.  He that laid and destroyed our wrath and made us meek and mild ---  we must believe that he is ever, in the same love, meek and mild; which is contrary to wrath." (Julian of Norwich - Revelations of Divine Love)
