Well Said: Assigned "on the edge"

More from Night of the Confessor (read more about that book here). This is going into my quote journal.
But at the same time God assigned us an odd location: "on the edge." He gave freedom of choice--including the choice of the angle from which to see and assess things. He gives us the gifts of faith and hope--not as objects "to keep" but as a light in a space that is otherwise darkened, thus offering us the possibility to view reality not only from our one single "worldly" perspective, but also from His angle, so to speak.
