I think what Gabriel understood was who You are. At times I have asked myself if humans can survive a love as huge as Yours, but that is before I remember that You are willing to save us. And that You save us from Yourself, for Yourself.

Gabriel understood what I am still working to grasp: You are holy, just, mighty, all-powerful, and do not suffer fools lightly. But Gabriel also understood the love You have for the frail humans You've created, a love so great that You allow us to come to Your Word, and thus, stand in the presence of God.

Gabe lowered the paper and looked across to where Lily had sat back on the edge of the pool, her feet in the water again. "This is excellent." "Thank you."

"What made you think of studying this passage today?"

"I'm not sure that it was anything in particular. I was thinking quite a bit about my father, but with no answers or conclusions. The book I'm reading is interesting, but it was hard to concentrate because I was so hungry. So I eventually turned to Luke its my favorite Gospel and tried reading very slowly and carefully. I was struck by Gabriel's response for the first time."

"If you could do today over, Lily, what would you do differently?"

"I would have told you this morning about the conversation with my father. I know you were in a hurry and needed to go, but I would have asked for your advice."

"What if there hadn't been anyone to ask? What if we'd all been called away and Wang hadn't heard the conversation?"

Lily thought for a moment.

"Maybe I would have tried to golf on my own, or maybe I would have eaten a little just to get through until you could teach me."
