From Thomas Merton


“What we are – our identity – is only truly known to God – not ourselves, not to other men. The greatest terror of the particular judgment is that, the moment after our death we instantly appear before the face of God and learn our identity – truly; we finally see ourselves as we really are! The measure of our identity, of our being (the two are the same) is the amount of our love for God.” Thomas Merton
