To Love as God Loves: Conversations wit... A source page for quotes linked to Roberta C. Bondi. 0 quotes
“Humility was an offensive characteristic for a God, in the eyes of early non-Christians. How could Christians worship a God who deliberately chose to share in human birth with all its mess and vulnerability and limitation, as well as a shameful death? How can we now worship a God to whom all the unimportant little details of our lives actually matter? How can we respect a God who takes us more seriously than we take ourselves, and yet is not impressed with all our accomplishments? Who loves us equally well, whetherwe succeed or fail? How could it really be that God simply disregards not only our education, our tastes, our industry, our niceness, our worthiness in order to love us? God's greatness we can begin to approach. The sheer humility of God's love is incomprehensible.” HumilityIncarnationGod S LoveGod S Nature Book:To Love as God Loves: Conversations with the Early Church Source: To Love as God Loves: Conversations with the Early Church
