Yeah, and the point of the whole thing is not just get your ticket stamped, okay, you go to heaven one day. The point of it is that we were created for relationship with our creator, and we don't become what we were intended to be without that.

It's like any other relationship. To be in a deep, intimate relationship, you've got to know the person and you've got to let yourself be known. And then you have to trust.
