“What you are is God’s gift to you, what you become is your gift to God.”—Hans urs von Balthasar.

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?  For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet: (Psalm 8:4-6 NKJV)
