Like Nicodemus, we want to understand. We want to have all the answers. But, there are some things we will never be able to completely understand. Like God. God is a mystery to humanity. We can begin to know---Scripture reveals God to us----Jesus reveals God to us----Knowing others is knowing God because we are made in the image of the divine. And yet, it is still only a sliver.
And yet this God, who is so much more than we will ever know, this God invites us into intimate relationship. This intimacy is what we are made for---to be drawn into the dance of love of our tri-personal God: the Father who gives life, the Son who defeats death, and the Spirit who restores and renews. For God so loved the world.
