“We exist within the question of God.”

“God exists outside of time, and since we are within time, there is no way we will ever totally grasp that concept.”

“Faith is not a question of the existence or non-existence of God. It is believing that love without reward is valuable.”

“Life is a question asked by God about the way he exists.”

“Rather than be content with the circle of love within the Godhead, God reached out to create so that others could enter this sphere of intimacy and be warmed by divine love . . . Creation was God's plan for friendship. We were not brought into existence simply so that we could worship God. Nor were we created simply for service. Human beings exist because of God's desire for companionship. ”

“In theory, every loss is for our own good; in practice, though, that is when we question the existence of God and ask ourselves: What did I do to deserve this?”
