For human beings, the most daunting challenge is to become fully human. For to become fully human is to become fully divine.

Becoming fully rational is not enough anymore; evidently it can lead to distortions of all the great human possibilities.

What I really wanted was to fall in love with God. It's amazing what obstacles there are within us, or at least in me, that seem to slow this process.

In the Christian perspective, the love of God and of all other human beings invites us to share and enjoy not just the best of the human potential as it evolves, but participation in the divine life itself.

The acceptance of all that God has given us and the willingness to let it go - to give it back to him at a moment's notice - that's true human freedom.

For us to remain in this world, our animal brain has to be there to support us.

God seems willing to act as the most sublime psychologist, psychotherapist, or even psychiatrist if we are willing.
