Relationship With God

RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD intense when man discovers all these blessings at the level of his own being. The first discovery causes man to utter these words, “God, You have given me so much!” But further discoveries cause him to call out spontaneously, “O God, You are so merciful that You have given me those blessings of which I knew, and besides those You gave me Your countless blessings about which I had no knowledge and so could not have asked You for them.” What is most desirable for man is a deep relationship with God. Such a relationship can be formed by profound thinking which causes man to discover divine blessings at the level of his own being. It is this kind of personal discovery that can produce a deep relationship for anyone. It is this deep relationship which has been called ‘loving God most’. (2:165)
