"God is a desert to be entered and loved, never an object to be grasped or understood."
This one sentence in the Solace of Fierce Landscapes book moved me like none other. I sat and pondered on it for a while. If you break down what is being said it is very true! God is a vast expansion of somewhat unknowns which resembles the desert. You are suppose to love God and have the up most respect and he is to be the center of your life, but no matter how hard you try God can never become an object to be grasped. We will never be able to physically hold him. Nor will we ever be able to understand him. I know personally when I don't understand what God did or decides to do I dwell on the question, but as my mom frequently tells me he does everything for a reason. Never second guess him he is all knowing and all love just trust. This sentence made me understand what my mom has been telling me for years!
