“Unable to see in the dark, I nonetheless discover, wordlessly, that I am seen. More: that I am loved. This is a revelation that could only be given, as a gift, because it bears witness to the reality that my very being is a gift. What gives me Myself is not a what but a who. In union, I know God as Lover, as the Beloved, as the ground of being whose being is love and whose being toward me is love.”

“The “I” that is Myself is, primordially, a self that is loved. I am beloved. This awareness is not a knowing and—here is scandal and the wager—it emerges as a primordial givenness only when we pass through the cloud of unknowing. It is not an awareness that dispels uncertainty. It is an awareness that enables one to live with uncertainty—to go on through uncertainty.”
