“In some mysterious way, human freedom becomes a kind of ‘limitation’ on the Divine omnipotence, because it pleased God to save creation not by compulsion, but by freedom alone.” (Georges Florovsky, Creation and Redemption, pg. 77)

Father, this was a short but beautiful quote, capturing a very important truth that I think is often lost on a lot of people. I plan on reading (and probably linking over to) your posts on prayer, but I wanted to thank you for this, as well. Fr. Georges Florovsky captured this very succinctly and well. Thanks!
You are welcome. It is always a joy when others also appreciate the quotes that have shaped my life and thought. Thanks for your kind words and for the work and writing you do.
