Unimaginable

We may not see God, and when we do see him, the reality that we cannot see is so much more complete than what we can know here.

And yet, others can come to know God through the little that we do.  Women on an Emmaus walk this evening received a glimpse of God through the actions of the community, just showing up. 

We can't know what heaven is like, and yet the bible still tries to describe it. It will be way beyond anything we can imagine.

Can we put words to an indescribable love?  Can we find the adjectives to paint heaven for someone else? Or even for ourselves?  Can our feeble language be crafted into the shape of God?

No.  And yet we know if is more than we see now, more than we can understand, more than we imagine.  And we cling to that faith.
