The Sweep of Love


The Sweep of Love

Douglas Steere


In the moment that we sense in prayer the sweep of God's love, a light is cast upon our own condition revealing us to ourselves as no amount of introspection can do. No amount of considering what we think of ourselves, what our friends think of us, or what our enemies say of us is even faintly comparable to this self-revelation that comes from prayer.... If we dare to stay in this chamber--aware of our shortcomings in the Light of God's loving presence--both the revelation of what must be put right and the strength to put it right must be given to us.
