Philomena, I love that Jung quote. And I'm glad, in some ways, that human beings are so complicated and impossible to please. If they were easier to please, perhaps we'd feel some satisfaction in just that, but instead we're driven again and again to God's consistent grace. 

Dave, yes! The tricky part, though, is for each of us to really search our hearts, and not just go with the easiest response. I don't want to give a bit of money then excuse myself, or say a prayer for people in Haiti and think I've done my part. It's a fine balance, between not being lazy and not burdening ourselves with the guilt of how "we could do so much more."

Wendy, you're right—not only did God create each one of us differently, but he continues to walk with us differently. The constants are there—love, grace, forgiveness—but they come across to each of us in different ways. Amazing.
