Knowing God and Loving God

“…[N]o one can pretend to love God while rejecting all desire to know Him better and to study His perfections in the truth He has revealed to us about Himself.”—Thomas Merton.  When we really love God, it is only natural that we have a genuine desire to know him better.  So we pray—this is communicating with God.  And we read his word—in which God reveals Himself.
