  5. Where is God? …Go to Him when your need is desperate, when all other help is vain, and what do you find? A door slammed in your face, and a sound of bolting and double bolting on the inside. After that, silence. You may as well turn away. The longer you wait, the more emphatic the silence will become. . . . What can this mean? Why is God so present to us in our time of prosperity and so very absent a help in times of trouble? - C.S. Lewis

  11. You have loved us first, O God!  We speak of it in terms of history as if You loved us first but a single time, but You have loved us first many times and everyday and our whole life through.  When we wake up in the morning and turn our soul toward You--You are there first--You have loved us first; if I rise at dawn and at that same second turn my soul toward You in prayer, You are there ahead of me, You have loved me first.  When I withdraw from the distractions of the day and turn my soul toward You, You are there first and thus forever.  And we speak ungratefully as if You have loved us first only once. Soren Kierkegaard’s prayer
