"[All] this time God has been trying
to find me, to know me, and to love me.
The question is not “How am I to find God?”
but “How am I to let myself be found by him?”
The question is not “How am I to know God?”
but “How am I to let myself be known by God?”

“How am I to love God?” but
“How am I to let myself be loved by God?”

- Henri Nouwen,
theologian
From his book, The Return of the Prodigal Son

Today marks Nouwen's birthday (1932)...
