Arturo, I read this quote when I checked your blog after I read your post over on Cornell Society's Blog.
I've been thinking about it a lot. It's amazing to think that this is what God has created us to be... and yet we are so small in comparison. It's quite a paradox. It reminds me of a line from the hymn "Gift of Finest Wheat" - "Whom all the world cannot contain comes in our hearts to dwell." How can this be and yet it happens.
Thanks for the post and the reminder of mystery.
