Quote by C.S. Lewis
“El camino de vuelta hacia Dios es un camino de esfuerzo moral, de intentarlo cada vez con más empeño. Pero en otro sentido, no es el esfuerzo lo que nos va a llevar de vuelta a casa. Todo este esfuerzo nos lleva a ese momento vital en el que nos volvemos a Dios y le decimos: «Tú debes hacerlo. Yo no puedo.» No empecéis, os lo imploro, a preguntaros: «¿He llegado yo a ese momento?» No os sentéis a contemplar vuestra mente para ver si va haciendo progresos. Eso le desvía mucho a uno. Cuando ocurren las cosas más importantes de nuestra vida, a menudo no sabemos, en ese momento, lo que está sucediendo. Un hombre no se dice a menudo: «¡Vaya! Estoy madurando.» Muchas veces es sólo cuando mira hacia atrás cuando se da cuenta de lo que ha ocurrido y lo reconoce como lo que la gente llama «madurar».”

Clive Staples Lewis was born in Ireland, in Belfast on 29 November 1898. His mother was a devout Christian and made efforts to influence his beliefs. When she died in his early youth her influence waned and Lewis was subject to the musings and mutterings of his friends who were decidedly agnostic and atheistic. It would not be until later, in a moment of clear rationality that he first came to a belief in God and later became a Christian.
C. S. Lewis volunteered for the army in 1917 and was wounded in the trenches in World War I. After the war, he attended university at Oxford. Soon, he found himself on the faculty of Magdalen College where he taught Mediaeval and Renaissance English.
Throughout his academic career he wrote clearly on the topic of religion. His most famous works include the Screwtape Letters and the Chronicles of Narnia. The atmosphere at Oxford and Cambridge tended to skepticism. Lewis used this skepticism as a foil. He intelligently saw Christianity as a necessary fact that could be seen clearly in science.
"Surprised by Joy" is Lewis's autobiography chronicling his reluctant conversion from atheism to Christianity in 1931.
