Quote by Hans Urs von Balthasar
To be sure, the response of faith to revelation, which God grants to the creature he chooses and moves with his love, occurs in such a way that it is truly the creature that provides the response, with its own nature and its natural powers of love.
Summary
This quote emphasizes the idea that faith, as a response to divine revelation, is something that is granted by God but also carried out by the individual. It implies that God chooses and moves the chosen creature with his love, but it is the creature that actively engages in the act of faith, using its own nature and innate capacities of love. In essence, faith is a partnership between God and the individual, where divine grace is combined with the individual's willingness and ability to love and respond to God's call.
