It is a myth that man in his natural state is genuinely seeking God. Men do seek God. But they do not seek him for who he is. They seek him in a pinch as one who might preserve them from death or enhance their worldly enjoyments…….. Apart from conversion, no one comes to the light of God.

Jesus pulls us into the love of the Trinity.

The Trinity is supremely awesome. Three Persons, but one God. Where you find one Person of the Trinity, you find the others. As Jesus said, “Whoever has seen me has seen the Father.” – [John 14:9] He even goes so far as to say, “I am in the Father and the Father is in me.” – [John 14:11] You se... (www.catholic365.com)

To that end she quoted the passage from Isaiah 38:17; “You have cast all my sins behind your back.” But one perspicacious child challenged the teacher about this. “Even if my sins ...
