“God’s face like a countenance beaming forth from the darkness: in order to see it we throw everything we possess into the fire - the world, our joy, our hopes. The flame leaps forth, consumes it all, and in its glow the beloved Face lights up. But the flame dies down, and we feed it with what little remains to us: Honor, success, our will, the intellect, our temperament, finaly our very self: ‘absume et suscipe’ ‘take and receive’. This is not simple self-giving but, increasingly, the knowledge that I am being taken, that I must surrender. Grace is everything: the moment of God’s appearing; grace also every sacrifice the fire snatches from me” Von Balthasar The Grain of Wheat
