He might also say, "Does that help you?" And, (God already knowing our answer), we might otherwise say, "No, that doesn't help much at all," to which he might be expected to answer without an answer. Silence. We're left in a conundrum. But we're looking in the wrong place for the answer. Perhaps the answer is self-evident in history. We look to the cross. We look to the resurrection. We take a look at Jesus' life. We look to the Holy Spirit's work in preparing the way of the Lord through the Prophets. We must also look to the Lord of Creation. "What are you like, God?" God says through the history of the world, in his Word, "Look at my Son." Jesus' witness gives us some clues. Yet there is something of a limitation to how much we might know Jesus' life. There are the limits of our understanding and there's the limit to what might be understood. We read of Jesus' compassion for the vulnerable so we know he's compassionate. We read of Jesus' merciful forgiveness so we know he's gracious even (especially even) when he's the one being assaulted. We read of Jesus' grip on justice, so we know he's righteous. We read of his miracles of healing, so we know he's got divine power, and even actually Divine. Our compassion, forgiveness and justice wavers, yet God's never does. We have never seen God, but we have seen God's works. We have never touched God, but he has touched us. And, though God has transformed us from old life to new, we have no idea how his power has wrought such a thing. As life is a mystery, so, it seems, is God. Yet creation tells us that God created the world and sustains it.
