“I can no more understand the totality of God than the pancake I made for breakfast understands the complexity of me”

“Many of our attempts to understand Christian faith have only cheapened it. I can no more understand the totality of God than the pancake I made for breakfast understands the complexity of me. The little we do understand, that grain of sand our minds are capable of grasping, those ideas such as God is good, God feels, God loves, God knows all, are enough to keep our hearts dwelling on His majesty and otherness forever.”

“Love is a bicycle with two pancakes for wheels. You may see love as more of an exercise in hard work, but I see it as more of a breakfast on the go.”

“More than anything, I wanted someone to understand what was inside me.”

“The older I get, the more I believe in what I can't explain or understand, even more than the things that are explainable and understandable.”

“I would rather walk every day in the darkness with a God who remains a mystery to me than in the light with a God I completely understand.”
