"My words are very easy to understand,
very easy to put into practice.
But you can't 'understand' them,
can't put them into 'practice.'
Words have their ruler.
Events have their origins.
People who can't understand this
can't understand me.
The ones who do are few.
They wear coarse cloth and
carry jade in their breasts."
It has been said, "Draw near to God and He will draw near to you." How often I have tried to stop Him in my stubborn refusal to get close. He must love me very much, indeed, because He keeps coming, almost despite me. I am afraid; He covers me. I cry; He hears me. I move; He follows me. I stay; He keeps me. He has indeed blessed me so very deeply. How can I do less than let Him lead me?
