No one has ever seen God

One question I hear fairly often goes something like, "If God exists, why doesn't he show himself to us more clearly?" I thought of this question today in small group when I read the below verse:

1 John 4:12
"No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us."

You are probably thinking: "How does that verse answer the question at all?" Well, it doesn't really. But somehow... something deep inside of me was satisfied :)

On an unrelated note, after small group, I read an article on `Mathematical Statistics' from the book "Princeton's Companion to Mathematics". It was delicious and captivating!!! :D The article was written by Persi Diaconis (I'm taking a class with him!!!! Weeeeee! :D) I wish people motivated topics in the same way as this book. It makes math so exciting!
