Dr. Bang,
Your comment and quote is to the point,
and I love it.
It isn't too hard for me to see it in your heart, indeed.
I'd like to quote a couple of sayings along the same vein.
Fyodor Dostoyevsky said in "The Brothers Karamazov,"
"Love people even in their sin, for that is the semblance
of Divine Love and is the highest love on earth.
Love all of God's creation, the whole and every grain of sand of it.
Love every leaf, every ray of God's light.
Love the animals, love the plants, love everything.
If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things.
Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it
better every day. And you will come at last to love
the whole world with an all-embracing love."
Father Pedro Arrupe, General of the Society of Jesus, says,
"Nothing is more practical than finding God,
than falling in love in a quite absolute, final way.
What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination,
will affect everything.
It will decide what will get you out of bed in the morning,
what you will do with your evening,
how you spend your weekends,
what you read,
whom you know,
what breaks your heart, and
what amazes you with joy and gratitude.
Fall in love, stay in love and
it will decide everything."

"A homeless person sitting against the wall on a sidewalk
chalked clearly on the pavement in front of him as follows,
'I watch how foolishly man guards his nothing ---
thereby keeping us out.
Truly, God is hated here.' "..........
"It seems that many Christians have been worshiping
Jesus' journey(from birth to his death on the cross)
instead of doing his journey.
The first feels very religious; the second just feels human,
and not glorious at all."
.... from the book, "Everything Belongs" by Richard Rohr

..."Prayer is not primarily saying words or thinking thoughts.
It is rather a stance.
It is a way of living in the Presence,
living in awareness of the Presence,
and even of enjoying the Presence.
The full contemplative is not just aware of the Presence,
but trusts, allows, and delights in it."
from the same book above

I hope my comment is Not Irrelevant to your Quotes and Teaching.
But I was thinking about Brian Adams's song "Heaven(1985)"
for some reason. Maybe, it's because he sings about "Love".
---And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven---
Love is all that we need, isn't it, sun-bae-nim?
That's what God is telling us, I presume.
