Fr. Dumitru Staniloae:
“Praying on your knees is something different… He who humbles himself knows the greatness of God in a different way than the proud one… in a different way you see the greatness of God… There is a prayer of kneeling, I mean a faith or theology of prayer, piety and poetry…
But I would emphasize that our future theology should be a theology of love and communion… communion with God, communion between us… and love of God and love among us. I think that the theology of tomorrow should be a theology of love of God and of communion, that is the theology of the experience of God and not of the rational speculation.
