When I was younger, I would say to my mom, “I love you 99.9%, and I love God 100%.”
She would smile and reply, “And how much do you love Daddy?”
After pretending to be deep in thought, I would say, “I love him 99.9% too.”
Little could my six-year-old mind comprehend that, mathematically, this didn’t add up. Still, you get the point. Even though I love my parents a lot, I love God much more. And that’s the way it should be. But unfortunately, sometimes, as you know, we make mistakes, and God slips to the back of our mind.
