    About this ebook

    God is knowable, only to the degree we find our hearts and souls open to believing in Him. God is unfathomable in His kindness, graciousness, openness, and creativity, in His wonderful compassion and His forgiveness. As He is beyond all our wildest dreams and expectations, I have tried to express a tiny corner, a minute reflection, of what He has chosen in His infinite goodness to reveal to us.
