Quran 24:35
Going through the mail that has been piling up for the past several weeks; skimmed through a publisher’s catalog (Paulist Press), and ran across the description of Home by Another Route: A Journal of Art, Music and Faith, by Charles Scribner, III; in the course of this, was introduced to the Latin proverb – evidently, ancient – “lux umbra dei”: “light is the shadow of God.”
It’s a breathtaking thought.
For one thing, someone with this in mind would only forget the presence of God about as often as they forget the presence of light.
