But where there are prophecies, they will cease;
where there are tongues, they will be stilled;
where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
For we know in part and we teach in part,
but when completeness comes,
what is in part disappears.
When I was a child,
I talked like a child,
I thought like a child,
I reasoned like a child.
When I grew up,
I put the ways of childhood behind me.
For now we see through a glass, darkly;
but then face to face:
now I know in part;
but then shall I know even as also I am known."
~St Paul
It's
all about love. Love and knowing, as much as we can know. And unlike
what some suggest, the more we know someone - their hopes, their
passions, their needs and yes, their (our) imperfections - the more we
can love them, not loathe them... not consider them "totally depraved," but totally beloved.
We all need more loving in this world.
