tentative advice about the Elusive
Crucifixes, candelight, images can speak, pillar trees in stone can shout as Christ convicts the meek. If you meet Him painted thus and reverently bow say: Neither is this Thou, yet this is also Thou. Kneel and watch the table; bells ring music into spheres. Await the revelation: bread is bread ?til Christ appears. Taste Him when He meets you? can anyone say how? For this is also Thou, and neither is this Thou. Outside after catch the starlight, spin it into song. Change the trees to litany, let the engine hum along. Worship through the windshield all the headlights will allow, whisper: Neither is this Thou, for this is also Thou.
