God loves us, God needs us. My soul too.
So then take it dear God because it knows that You are all it should
want and if it were wise You would be all it would want and the times it thinks
wise, You are all it does want, and it wants more and more to want You. Its demands are absurd. It’s a moth who would be king, a stupid
slothful thing, a foolish thing, who wants God, who made the earth, to be its
Lover. Immediately. If only I could hold God in my mind. If I could only always just think of Him.
-from A Prayer Journal, Flannery O'Connor
