Reading Bonhoeffer again. I am amazed at the heart and understanding of such a man about God. I can be so blind, selfish and callous; I am so weak too!
oh that God would help me:
see with eyes like His,
understand + know with a mind like His,
love with compassion like His...
“God loves human beings. God loves the world. Not an ideal human, but human beings as they are; not an ideal world, but the real world. What we find repulsive in their opposition to God, what we shrink back from with pain and hostility, namely, real human beings, the real world, this is for God the ground of unfathomable love.”
-Diedrich Bonhoeffer (Letters)
