Faith does not spring out of nothing.
It comes with the discovery
of the holy dimension of our existence.
Suddenly we become aware that our lips touch
the veil that hangs before the Holy of Holies.
Our faith is lit up for a time
with the light from behind the veil.
Faith opens our hearts for the entrance of the holy.
This is how close we are to the holy.
When we open ourselves up to the possibility
that God can be there in any moment,
miracle is all around us.
Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel.
