When I think of the years when I had no faith, what I am struck by, first of all, is how little this lack disrupted my conscious life. I lived not without God, nor wish his absence, but in a mild abeyance of belief, drifting through the days on a tide of tiny vanities — a publication, a flirtation, a strong case made for some weak nihilism — nights all adagios and alcohol as my mind tore luxuriously into itself. I can see now how deeply God’s absence affected my unconscious life, how under me always there was this long fall that pride and fear and self-live at once protected me from and subjected me to.

I never truly felt the pain of unbelief until I began to believe.

At moments like these Jesus never delivered sermons about judgment or the need to accept God’s mysterious providence.

In this way he lived, not knowing or seeing any possibility of knowing what he was or why he lived in the world.
