As I watched the surface of my coffee in its cup this morning, I rotated around first one way and then the other, watching the coffee rotate in the opposite direction each time. Of course, the coffee surface really remained motionless while its "world" moved.
What appears to us is influenced by context; what I experience is a "profile" against a larger background. To me it's a good example of the importance of our faith as that larger background, against which the "brute facts" of life take on meaning. Facts only become meaningful and true when profiled against the background of a faith. Living in the truth is experiencing life "betrothed" to our faith.
