I believe “God is love” also. I know I need God’s love and mercy. It’s great to know he’s my rock.

I just finished a book by a Jesuit called “How Big is Your God?” His name is Paul Coutinho, SJ.

It touched me deeply. Coutinho said to 400 people in a talk in LA, “Tomorrow, do not love God for one hour. Instead allow God to show up and show off how much He loves you!!!”

I love that….

Hugs to you both,
Karen in CA

I used to believe the way you do, though I never was born-again. I was Catholic through and through . . .

Now, I fall back on my own conscience (no churchliness) and the aha moments that come on a daily basis, knowing that I am loved. That is all I know for sure, that I am loved.

And that I am teaching myself, indeed, disciplining myself, to be altruistic and compassionate. It is more doing than believing.
