True, He is infinite Majesty, but He is also infinite Goodness and infinite Love. There can be no greater Lord than God; neither can there be a more ardent lover than He.

But You never reject a repentant and humble heart.

You teach your daughters the diameters of the planets and wonder when you are done that they do not delight in your company.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

I have always had confidence in my own ability.
