The Secret Life of God: Discovering the Divine within You Paperback - 2005

First line

GRASPING THE TRUTH ABOUT LIFE is like watching a photograph in the midst of the developing process-first there is a little gray emerging in the corner; then something a little darker appears in the middle; little by little the shadows fill in, definitions appear, and eventually the actual images are visible.
