"The knowledge of God is a mountain steep indeed and difficult to climb -
the majority of people scarcely reach its base. If one were a Moses, he
would ascend higher and hear the sound of trumpets which, as the text of
the history says, becomes louder as one advances. For the preaching of the
divine nature is truly a trumpet blast, which strikes the hearing, being
already loud at the beginning but becoming yet louder at the end."
St. Gregory of Nyssa.
"Our soul waits for the Lord; He is our help and our shield. For our heart
shall rejoice in Him, Because we have trusted in His holy name."
Psalm 33:20-21
Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.
