Let me offer a further quotation from Teilhard’s Divine Milieu, remembering that humans do not tend to get invested in things unless those things somehow include them: God does not offer Himself to our finite beings as a thing all complete and ready to be embraced. For us, He is eternal discovery and eternal growth. The more we think we understand Him, the more he reveals himself as otherwise. The more we think we hold him, the further He withdraws, drawing us into the depths of himself.*5
