"...but what do we mean when we talk of God helping us?
We mean God putting into us a bit of Himself, so to speak. He lends us a little of His reasoning powers and that is how we think: He puts a little of His love into us and that is how we love one another.
When you teach a child writing, you hold its hand while it forms the letters: that is, it forms the letters because you are forming them.
We love and reason because God loves and reasons and holds our hand while we do it."
"We love, because He first loved us."
1 John 4:19
