" O HAPPY FAULT!
The Jewish mystic Baal Shem had a
curious way of praying to God.
“Remember, Lord,” he would say,
“you need me just as much as I
need you. If you did not exist,
whom would I pray to? If I did
not exist, who would do the praying?”
It brought me joy to think that if I had not sinned God would have had no occasion to be forgiving. "
