When God made woman out from the rib of man, the theology of other-centeredness took on flesh.
I had often pondered why God would say that it is not good for man to be alone. After all, there have been seasons of life when isolation seemed most comforting.
And then I turn the leaf of honesty, and admit that through my imposed solitude I drift towards a safe but lifeless existence.
Ahh, it seems undeniably true that deep down in my pretentious psyche is a longing for unremitting companionship.
I ache for koinonia.
The fellowship of the Trinity provides the perfect paradigm for my inquiry. In infinite measure, God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit have been demonstrating the gravitas of this wonder.
In absolute fluidity of affection one for each other, the devotion of the Godhead speaks forth the strongest argument why we all need each other.
As we commit to this ordination, we behold a kiss that holds us dear and close to the very heart of our Creator.
