Written by Thomas Keating (1923-2018), an American Trappist priest known as one of the principal developers of centering prayer.
Think of God in a very big way. And if you do, that’s too small! You can’t think of anything more wonderful than this God. And you can’t figure out anything about God without a special grace…God is so marvelously good, there is no word for it. So gentle. So considerate. So kind, so tender—so everything marvelous. That is God. And whatever you say is far less than it is. As Paul says “It hasn’t crossed the imagination of any human being what God has prepared for those who love him.”
None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived” — the things God has prepared for those who love him—these are the things God has revealedto us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. [1 Corinthians 2:8-10]
