The vastness of Creator God and His Plan ‘A’ is far greater than our brains can process. The Apostle Paul confesses that ‘now our knowledge is partial and incomplete, and even the gift of prophecy reveals only part of the whole picture.’ Now we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections in a mirror …’ All that I know is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely. (1 Cor. 13:9,12). Jesus, as well, told the disciples ‘There is so much more I want to tell you, but you can’t bear it now.’ (Jn. 16:12). So, with those words of encouragement, we read the Prophet Isaiah for inspiration, for hope, all the while knowing the full mystery is too much.

The one perfectly divine thing, the one glimpse of God’s paradise
given on earth, is to fight a losing battle – and not lose it.
