“…God is light and in God is no darkness at all,” I John 1:5b.

“No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God

abides in us and God’s love is perfected in us” I John 4:12.

The physicist states that we would not

know that there was pure light if it did

not fall upon an object. Without the

greens and blues and yellows and reds

we would not know that there even is a

source of light that gives birth to the ob-

jects upon which it falls and we only see

the objects because of the lack of other

colors in the spectrum in each object. So

to know the un-see-able light we must see

all the colors and all the colors must come

together in the rainbow and so when we

see the rainbow, that which the light falls

upon spread out across the spectrum of life,

we see all that we are with our own dark-

ness in the splitting of the light and affirm

that there is a light source that we cannot

see but which gives us the radiance that

we are and in seeing that radiance in

ourselves, we see the otherwise un-see-

able in each other. We see God. We see

love for ourselves and for all the other

colors of the rainbow. We can see Jesus.

He has color for us to see. He has dark

brown curly hair and black eyes and olive

skin. In other places he has blond, wavy

hair and piercing blue eyes. And else-

where he wears the multi-colored robe

of Joseph and has black skin. Some say

he wears buffalo hides and moccasins

and while he has little body hair, he has

magnificent flowing black locks. He has

Mary Magdalene’s red lips and His mother

Mary’s green eyes.  He has the bright

wonder in his eye that Jonathon and David

had when they looked at each other. He

has the grey knowing eyes of the Buddha

and the bright laughing white teeth of

Confucius. He is God to us and he says

that we, too, are as gods. He is one of us

so he isn’t pure Un-see-able light, but he

has enough of the light of God in him,

so when we see Jesus, we see through a

window into the heart of God and into

our own hearts.  Jesus loves the little

children, all the children of the world.

Red and yellow, black or white, they

are precious in his sight. Jesus loves the

little children of the world and we know

the Un-see-able Light.
