Finding God by opening yourself to Love

"The surest way to find God is not to make Him a private possession, a problem solver, or an instant consolation in time of need, but rather by opening to love."

This is credited to Rev. John Powell, Professor, Loyla University.
I don't know if the email is correct or not, but the sentiment is.
We try to find God by our intellect. We want to use God for our improvement.
We want God to fix our problems. When we open ourselves to love, we discover He is there.
