What is God's World and Our Place in It about?

God desires our will.If we give God our energy, we give Him back His own gift. If we give Himour talents, our joys, and our possessions, we return to Him that which Heplaced into our hands, not as owners, but as mere trustees. There is only onething in the world that we can call our own. There is only one thing we cangive to God that is ours as against His, which not even He will take away,and that is our own will, with its power to choose the object of its love.Hence, the most perfect gift we can give to God is the gift of our will. Thegiving of that gift to God is the greatest defeat that we can suffer in the eyesof the world, but it is the greatest victory we can win in the eyes of God. Insurrendering it, we seem to lose everything, yet defeat is the seed of victory,as the diamond is the child of night. The giving of our will is the recoveryof all our will ever sought: the perfect Life, the perfect Truth, and theperfect Love which is God!- Venerable Fulton J. Sheen
