revelations come through a life of intimacy with the Creator and His creation? Perhaps they are not the mundane sort, where simple stories are mere entertainment and wild wonderings are only fantasies. Perhaps they are not the meaningless sort, where failure serves no purpose and broken hearts find no healing. Instead, perhaps the changes that come through Divine Communion are inherently good, essentially true, and incalculably beautiful. If so, then words collected and arranged to witness these encounters are the holy, human heart cries of an alchemy of praise.
