Like A Nursing Child

"My most normal habit is to simply keep my attention on God, and to be generally and lovingly aware of him. I often feel myself attached to God with sweetness and satisfaction greater than that experienced by a nursing child. Therefore, if I dared to use this term, I would willingly call this state being nursed by God, for the inexpressible sweetness which I taste and experience there."
