Let us not expect faith to provide the answers to every question. Instead, we should derive from it the courage to step into the cloud of mystery and bear life's many open questions and paradoxes. St. Paul tells us that here on earth we see only in part, as in a mirror, as in a riddle. Faith must not stop seeking and questioning; it must not petrify into an ideology. It must not abandon its openness to an eschatological future.
