Musing #3


The Sistine Chapel and School of Athens: images I have seen in print, but to stand beneath the originals, the actual masterpieces, is breathtaking. To describe the feeling would fall short - it makes me think of the apostles' inability to describe Heaven with human words. It gives me this incredible sense of expectation: if I am having trouble describing something created by man, how much more incredible Heaven will be. How much beauty and (for lack of a better word) magic must Heaven hold? Heaven, an ineffable creation. Then, to think of the Creator - how beyond imagination, let alone words.
