- "God honors us by respecting our wishes. If we don’t want him to be our God – letting him be in total control of our lives – it saddens him, but in his gentleness he will let us go our own way. No one has suffered the pain of rejected love like God. You can not be forced to love someone. Nor can you be forced to desire purity of heart. The Giver has done all he can. It’s over to you. To ignore our Creator is the height of selfishness. He is the source of every good thing we ever enjoyed. Every wonderful thing we take for granted comes from him. He holds our atoms together. He looks after those who ignore him, giving them time after time to respond to his astounding love. They don’t want God to interfere, but he does anyhow – showering them with a thousand soft, warm, beautiful, delicious, refreshing, thrilling and uplifting gifts. At death, however, those to be free from God have their wish. That’s the final path, cut off forever from love, beauty, fulfillment and joy."
