"God is vastly patient and relentlessly persevering as He intrudes into your life. God's love is full of blood, sweat, tears, and cries. He suffered for you. He fights for you, pursuing you in powerful tenderness so he can change you. He's jealous, not detached. The Lord's love for his children is no tame love. It is not characterized by calm detachment, His love is good in a way that is vigorous and complex." David Powilson, Seeing with New Eyes
