But what's interesting to me is that this apparition
of the hope, a sign of God still with us.
One of the things that as a bishop, as a lifelong Catholic, one of the great realities that I think is always helpful to me is to remember God is timeless.
That's hard for us to grasp.
We can't really grasp it.
How can God be outside time?
But he is.
God is eternal.
And so the things unfolding, we would say, well, this was 400 years ago, and now it's happening now, and how does this work?
For God, there is no time.
It's simply truth, goodness, and beauty always flowing.
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
So keeping that perspective always reminds us, reminds me to be careful about presuming things about history because God's outside all of that.
I mean, history is a reality of the creation that God has given us, which is precious and is good.
As God says in Genesis, he saw that it was good.
But the evil and the bad can come when we who are created in God's image and likeness begin to ignore truth.
That is constantly what it comes down to.
When I sin, I'm ignoring truth.
I mean, we may not say, oh, I'm going to go ignore some truth today.
But if we trace it back logically, what I'm doing when I sin in significant or just small ways, sometimes it's literally telling a lie, ignoring the truth, pretending that this is the way things are or this is what I've done.
