"God does not come to us in the abstract; He comes to us through flesh and blood. We do not initially fall in love with God as a principle; rather, we first fall in love with human beings whose lives radiate friendship with the divine. It is only then that we seek out God on our own."
--Taken from "Meditation in a Minor Key", a short story by Joseph L. Wheeler

Hmm, I like that thought. About falling in love with God first when we feel His love from other people. It's really a good reminder for me to "love my neighbor as myself" because another's salvation might be depending on it...
