My re ste vel ry ation

When I quote someone, people ask where it came from. They want to know who spoke those words. It is the source behind the mystery that they desire. I hesitate in these moments to give a name or the source of what we are talking about because to have knowledge of the source sometimes takes away the awe from the mystery. I want to understand the transfer of power from mystery to revelation. It seems, in order for revelation to be had, the awe behind the mystery must then fade. To me, that is disappointing and can be dangerous in the long run. Advancements in understanding are important and are the catalyst for change. They have a piece in the purpose for living. However, these advancements were never meant to dim the light of our intrigue. That is in part why I believe in our Creator because in Him my awe does not fade. The real scientific process is 1) Observe 2) Understand and 3) Move on. That is not how I want to process. My attention does not focus, spoil and then refocus. The source of the mysteries I see is never fully understood and yet reveals anew every day. We can ask the question of God or science or we can experience the level of awe in each.
