THE CROSS

'If it is I who determine where God is to be found, then I shall always find a God who corresponds to me in some way, who is obliging, who is connected with my nature. But if God determines where he is to be found, then it will be in a place which is not immediately pleasing to my nature, and which is not at all congenial to me. This place is the Cross of Christ.'
Dietrich Bonhoeffer in Eric Metaxas, Bonhoeffer, p.137.
