It seems very easy, especially for us in the West, to forget that, in this life at least, God - the Ultimate Reality, the Source of all being - is a Mystery that human reason cannot penetrate nor words express. While we are here on Earth, we can only see God "as in a mirror darkly" (1 Corinthians 13:12). We cannot understand or "solve" this mystery, we can only open ourselves to it and learn to receive it, not with our minds but at the core of our being: with our hearts. - from "Who Is God?" Irma Zaleski has a gift for taking the most profound theological questions - such as "What do we mean when we say the word God?" - and showing that they can be answered in simple language, accessible to any reader, without sacrificing any of the depth or any of the sense of wonder that comes from contemplating the Divine. Here she provides fifty short reflections on many aspects of the immense mystery of God, as well as on the complementary mystery of faith, providing much wisdom about how we can learn to open our hearts to God moment by moment. She shows that in sincerely asking the question "Who is God?" we can discover our soul's true road home.
