"If you want to know about God, there is only one way to do it: get down on your knees.
You can make His acquaintance by investigation, but you can win His love only by loving.
Most people who deny God do not do so because their reason tells them there is no God, for how could reason witness against Reason? Their denial is rather because of wishful thinking. They feel they would be happier if there were no God, for then they could do as they pleased.
Think a little less about whether you deserve to be loved by Him; He loves you even though you are not deserving. It is His love alone that will make you deserving.
Most of us are unhappy because we never give God a chance to love us; we are in love only with ourselves."
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
