Into this Dark we pray to come

Denis the Areopagite
July-August 2016 (Vol. XXIX, No. 7)

Into this Dark, beyond all light, we pray to come and, unseeing and unknowing, to see and to know the One that is beyond seeing and beyond knowing...That is to do as sculptors do, drawing the statue latent there...and displaying the beauty hidden there.

~ Denis the Areopagite
