Believing is seeing, but also seeing well is believing! If we see things as they really are, we find ourselves loving them! Today’s hypothesis.

“Believing is seeing.” St Augustine said. You have to believe in order to see, as in fairy tales, which is why kids usually know more-that is, they see the context behind the text, more of what is really around us! The prophets were the same—they saw the angels in the sky as they looked at the normal day.
But I would also say, that you have to see well to know something. Or, as Martin Buber put it, “seeing is in the “I” of the beholder! To what degree I engage with you, i will encounter you.
If i see you as you truly are, i will certainly love you, or as CS Lewis pointed out, if we really saw one another in our glory, it would be like seeing angels all around us. Good vision leads to good knowing. Love of course is the ultimate inner camera lens, I always try to carry with me.
