What happened? In a moment from life to death, from intimacy to estrangement, from bliss to dread. Oh that we, the beloved, might imbibe the last state of our soul as readily as the former. His grace shines in the latter all the more in the light of our former. He has rescued us as “He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him” (II Corinthians 5:21)
