I am currently reading the Apostolic Exhortation issued by Pope Francis earlier this month - Guadete et Exsultate. Like most of Pope Francis' writings, there are a lot of "down to earth" quotes in this material. Here is a great quote on the mystery of God and God's transcendence. So often, we try to put God into a box, don't we?
God infinitely transcends us; he is full of surprises. We are not the ones to determine when and how we will encounter him; the exact times and places of that encounter are not up to us. Someone who wants everything to be clear and sure presumes to control God’s transcendence.
