What can I say to You, my God? Shall I collect together all the words that praise Your Holy Name? Shall I give You all the names of this world – You, the Unnameable?
Shall I call You: God of my life
Meaning of my existence
Hallowing of my acts
My journey’s End
Bitterness of my bitter hours
You, my most treasured happiness?
Shall I say: Creator
Sustainer
Pardoner
Near One
Distant One
Incomprehensible One
God of both flowers and stars
God of the Gentle Wind
Wisdom
Power
Loyalty and Truthfulness
Eternity and Infinity
You the All-merciful
You the Just One
You Love itself
Or shall I say: Breath Within
Holy Light
Gracious Spirit
Womb of all
Keeper of Promises
Enabling Friend
Amazing Grace
Mystery of Love
Compassionate Heart
Freedom of the Oppressed
Are there any titles I needn’t give You? And when I have listed them all, what have I said? If I should take my stand on the shore of Your Endlessness and shout into the trackless reaches of Your Being all the words I have ever learned in the poor prison of my little existence, what should I have said? I should never have spoken the last word about You.
~Karl Rahner
Let the beauty we love be what we do.
There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.
