“If our value system doesn’t allow us to enjoy anything without putting a price on it, we miss a great part of the beauty of life. When we bring this value system into the domain of prayer, we can never enjoy God. As soon as we start enjoying Him, we have to reflect, “Oh boy, I’m enjoying God!” And as soon as we do that, we are taking a photograph of the experience. Every reflection is like a photograph of reality. It isn’t our original experience; it is a commentary on it.”
