That first pregnancy is a long sea journey to a country where you don't know the language, where land is in sight for such a long time that after a while it's just the horizon - and then one day birds wheel over that dark shape and it's suddenly close, and all you can do is hope like hell that you've had the right shots.
You go through so much with the heartache, the pain, the nonsense, the games, and it's easy to lose sight of the possibility of love.
Even on the cross He did not hide Himself from sight; rather, He made all creation witness to the presence of its Maker.
We reduce the deity to vulgar fractions. We place our own little ambitions and label them ?divine messages?. With our short sight we affect to take a comprehensive view of eternity.

It is the nature of the thing, not the clearness of its outline, that determines its operation. We live by faith, and not by sight.
