1. When a person sets out to learn about God, that person begins a journey that will take them down many paths. God is so great and so magnificent that when a person travels down one path, they find that it only opens into numerous other paths, with each additional path leading into even more numerous paths. It will not take a person long in his quest to know God to join with the Psalmist in saying, ‘‘Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and His greatness is unsearchable’’ (Psalm 145:3).

If I were drowned in the deepest sea, I know whose tears would come down to me Mother o’mine, O mother o’mine!
If I were damned of body and soul I know whose prayers would make me whole Mother o’mine, O mother o’mine!
