Until a man yields himself to God in the consent of total belief, he must inevitably remain a stranger to himself, an exile from himself

Daily Reflection

We would like to thank all our friends who supplied us with these 'Reflections of Life' which we are sharing with the Internet Community. We encourage you to purchase the books from which these reflections are quoted!

Several years ago, a former student of mine, Tommy, the resident atheist in my Theology of Faith course, lay dying. He had asked me, at the end of the course: "Do you think I will ever find God ?" I replied: "No, Tommy, but He will find you."

His last words to me were: "We do not find God. He finds us in His own time and in His own way. Only when I opened myself in love to those around me did God come in through the door of the heart I had left open."

Somehow I think it is that way with all of us.

Thanks, Tommy.
