All I can say in this is that I am grateful for the last paragraphs you wrote to clarify what Chesterton wrote. “Through increased wonder we find deeper insight. As Chesterton puts it: “the riddles of God are more satisfying than the answers of human beings” is the encouragement for me to continue to learn the act of ‘wonder’
Penny, that is one thing I have been learning recently: Sunday worship, particularly in singing, is one wonderful act of wonder. When I can let go of the worries, critiques, and ideas that are such a constant and instead release myself to the awe of God in song I find the “sweet spot” of the whole service!

I had not that about that but your insight does resonate in my soul! Thank you for sharing that thought
