God’s will is like the sun whose rays are like his will for each one of us. Each of us walks along a ray, distinct from the ray of the person next to us, but always along a ray of the sun. The closer the rays get to the sun, the closer they get to each other. For us too, the closer we come to God, by carrying out the divine will, more and more, the closer we draw to each other.
–Chiara Lubich (1920–2008)
