Wisdom from Buechner

So I was reading a collection of Buechner's little essays... And I cam across something rather profound, and it went straight to my heart. I sat there, kind of stunned, and had to stop reading. It was in an essay entitled "The Power of God and the Power of Man".. Here it what I read:

Maybe some say "I know human love, and I know something of its power to
heal, to set free, to give meaning and peace, but God's love I know only as a
phrase." Maybe others also say thins, "For all the power that human love has to
heal, there is something deep within me and within the people I know best that
is not healed but aches with longing still. So if God's love is powerful enough
to reach that deep, how do I find it? How?"
If that is really the question, if we are really seeking this power, then I
have one thing to say [...]: ask for it. [...] Ask, and you will receive. And
there is the other side to it too: if you have never known the power of God's
love, then maybe it is because you have never asked to know it - I mean really
asked, expecting an answer. [...]
Pray to Him, is what I am saying. In whatever words you have. "Lord, I
believe; help my unbelief" is the best any of us can do really, but thank God it
is enough. [...] Prayer is so foreign to us. It's so hard and it is so
easy. And everything depends on it. Seek. Ask. And by God's grace we will
find. In Christ's name and with his power I can promise you this.

I guess I am not the only one who struggles with feeling like I don't really KNOW or EXPERIENCE God's love. I am not the only one who struggles with expecting too much from people, because they are, in many ways, the place where I find healing, incomplete as it may be.... It feels good to realise one is not alone in thinking these things.
Maybe it's time I do some asking. Some seeking. Some believing. So help my unbelief!
