One of the keys to real religious experience is the shattering realization that no matter how hateful we are to ourselves, we are not hateful to God. This realization helps us to understand the difference between our love and his. Our love is a need, his a gift. We need to see good in ourselves to in order to love ourselves. He does not. He loves us not because we are good, but because He is.
Thomas Merton
I sought the Lord, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.
Psalm 34:4
The Revised Standard Version
