“There is no deeper joy and greater privilege than to be alone with the God who made us, who loves us, and who calls himself our Father. There is no greater friendship than the one we have with our brother, Jesus, who for our sake became one of us. There is no more intimate relationship than the one we enjoy with the Holy Spirit, God himself living in us.”
