"...Yet he (a man Jesus met - Matthew 5) was called, as we are called, to listen attentively to God's first word to us. This word is the gift of ourselves to ourselves - our existence, our nature, our personal history, our uniqueness, our identity. All that we have and are is one of the unique and never-to-be-repeated ways God has chosen to express himself in space and time."
Excerpt from Manning's book above (Italics mine)
