Unless you become a little child.’ I am sure you will understand beautifully everything if you would only “become” a little child in God’s hands. Your longing for God is so deep, and yet He keeps Himself away from you. He must be forcing Himself to do so, because He loves you so much – as to give Jesus to die for you and for me. Christ is longing to be your Food. Surrounded with fullness of living Food, you allow yourself to starve. The personal love Christ has for you is infinite; the small difficulty you have regarding His Church is finite. Overcome the finite with the infinite. Christ has created you because He wanted you. I know what you feel – terrible longing with dark emptiness. And yet, He is the one in love with you.
–Saint Teresa of Calcutta (1910-1997)
