How do we know that we are infinitely loved by God when our immediate surroundings keep telling us that we’d better prove our right to exist?
The knowledge of being loved is an unconditional way, before the world presents us with its conditions, cannot come from books, lectures, television programs, or work shops. This spiritual knowledge comes from people who witness to God’s love for us through their words and deeds. These people can be closer to us but they can also live far away or may even have lived long ago. Their witness announces the truth of God’s love and calls us to act in accordance with it.
