“You have to seek his face; obedience is the only way of seeking him. Every act of obedience is an approach to the One who is not far off, though he seems so. He is close behind this visible screen of things which hides him from us. He is behind this material framework. Earth and sky are only a veil between him and us; the day will come when he will rend that veil and reveal himself.” – John Henry Newman
