“The name God points to the mystery of an unspeakable source of eternal love that flows endlessly from the divine kiss that is, at once, a deep intimate presence toward ultimate transcendence and fulfillment.”

Such is a communion/union of the most intimate kind — the mixing of two things that form a compound or whole greater than either alone.
I love to look into my eyes and smile with love to the God within who is the source of our love in this incredible universe.
Imagine the consequences if all users of the name God, did so with similar insight!
