What we say about love between persons applies even more to God. If love is true, it will last, we tell our children when they fear a separation from their beloved. If it is the real thing, it will come through. Surely this holds for God as well. If God's gift of self-revelation reveals truth, then it will see us through. Its forms of expression may alter; our ways into its truths may find different expression; but its truth about the center goes on shining. And the center still addresses us, pushes toward us and into us. We must discover new ways to receive it and explore new ways to correspond with it.
