On the road. Coming home.

Aslan was gone. But there was a brightness in the air and on the grass, and a joy in their hearts,… ~The Chronicles of Narnia, C.S. Lewis

"My friend Richard had asked, “Where is God? Show me. I want to see him.” Surely at least part of the answer to his question is this: If you want to see God, then look at the people who belong to him — they are his “bodies.” They are the body of Christ.
“His disciples will have to look more saved if I am to believe in their Savior,” said Nietzsche to such a challenge. But maybe if Richard could find a saint, someone like Mother Teresa, to embody the qualities of love and grace, maybe then he would believe. There — see her? That is what God is like. She is doing the work of God.
Richard does not know Mother Teresa, but he does know me. And that is the most humbling aspect of the doctrine of the Holy Spirit. Richard probably will never hear a voice from a whirlwind that drowns out all questions. He will likely never get a personal glimpse of God in this life. He will only see me."
