If our journey to the dark abyss called alienation has stalled our pursuit of life, it has accomplished its purpose. We must be so thoroughly chastened that we will cease our efforts and listen to good news - news so unspeakably great that if we will listen we will be lifted high above the mountain summit. Health is being right in all our relationships. Unhealth is alienation.
Healing is found in reconciliation - a task greater than the work of creation.
Putting the fractured creation together again is a work only the Almighty can accomplish. Guilt is a God-sized problem. He must handle it. The creation of the world was an exhibition of almighty power and wisdom. But the work of reconciliation is greater.
