What is God, then?
The Quest for God - Paul Johnson
So last night, i decided to crack open one of the hundred of books my mom owns on Christianity..and i came across this one. It has some confusing words but is quite in depth. Anyway i wanted to share this passage:
"God is always there. His line to us is perpetually open, even when we do not respond for long periods. For many, contacts with God are suspended for years at a time, sometimes for half a lifetime. That is said, it can be tragic, but it is not irreparable. When we will it, when we remember that God is ALWAYS there, contact can be resumed instantaneously: there is no waiting, no probationary period, no 'technical difficulties'. We can be back on the same footing in an instant."
Wow. So true. Thats on page 40 of almost 200. I really can't wait to see what else me Johnson has to say.
