Julie Cameron Quote
It's my experience that we're much more afraid that there might be a God that we are that there might not be. . . . Most of us are a lot more comfortable feeling we're not being watched too closely.
If there is no God, or if that God is disinterested in our puny little affairs, then everything can roll along as always and we can feel quite justified in declaring certain things impossbile, other things unfair. If God, or ther lack of God, is responsible for the state of the world, then we can easily wax cynical and resign ourselves to apathy. WHat's the use? Why try changing everything?
This is the use. If there is responsive creative force that does hear us and act on our behalf, then we may really be able to do some things. The jig, in short, is up: God knows that the sky's the limit. ANyone honest will tell you that possiblity is far more frightening than impossiblity, that freedom is far more terrifying than any prison. If we do, in fact, have to deal with a force beyond ourselves that involves irself in our lives, then we may have to move into action on those previously impossible dreams.
