The Cloud of Unknowing

I reach into the cloud of unknowing, into the Great Mystery, comfortable in what I don't know, but trusting, taking a chance and guided by the image of Christ. I reach heights beyond imagining. But then I start to struggle, I begin to make demands. It is not enough to believe, I must KNOW. And what if I can't? Fear, anxiety, and darkness roll in. If I cannot know, I won't believe. Soon I am lost in the shadows. I shrink from the size of the universe to something less than a man. I look up, my Lord Jesus says to me, "you of little faith...why did you doubt?" And I start to climb the mountain again.
