Let God be God

"
And for me to let God be God, I must put up with the fact everyone around me is the Other, and they bear the image of the One Philanthropist. I must put up with the fact that all the pagan gods, Apollonian and Dionysian, find their germ in my soul, and thus the Enemy of God is not, immediately, the devil, but me. I must put up with the fact that the only alternative to Enemy of God is Slave to Christ.

Slave, and friend.

Let God be God.

Or, as we might say better, and more completely, in the dark of the night and the light of the Son, “Let God arise, and let His enemies be scattered.”
