"What no person has a right to do is to delude others into the belief that faith is something of no great significance, or that it is an easy matter, whereas it is the greatest and most difficult of all things."
//Søren Kierkegaard via John Irving; A Prayer for Owen Meany
I know that you cannot explain everything to everyone in the way that they want to or need to hear it. And I know that some answers will never satisfy those who are looking for something that even they cannot explain. But a lot of times it strikes home for me. Especially when I'm faced with the question of people asking, ultimately what do you want out of life? And I think Fanny Crosby put it really nicely centuries ago. Simply, that when my spirit clothed immortal; wings its flight through realms of day;
This my song through endless ages; Jesus led me all the way.
