Shadows stretch through the house, across floors and against
walls. They fall behind objects, marking
darkened space.
And yet faith suggests these familiar
objects, and everything we consider real, are just shadows of much greater Realities.
“Corporeal (human, earthly, mortal, tangible) things are considered
shadows since they can in no way be compared to the saving and holy gifts of
the God of all.”
-Origen (185-254 AD)
