William Temple
O God of light and love, you illumined your Church through the witness of your servant William Temple: Inspire us, we pray, by his teaching and example, that we may rejoice with courage, confidence, and faith in the Word made flesh, and may be led to establish that city which has justice for its foundation and love for its law; through Jesus Christ, the light of the world, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

Aquinas holds as a matter of faith that human beings are able to see or understand God (albeit without comprehending him). But to see God is not like seeing a horse, which we do by grasping the form of the horse and actualizing it in our mind. God has to “assist” our minds, with grace, if we are to see him. Which means that when we see God, God will become both subject and object in that act of seeing. Somehow, we are transformed into God. This is a great mystery, and the excitement of reading Aquinas is to see how far our minds can go as we try to understand it. You are welcome to join the Aquinas reading group on Wednesdays, 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. in Andrew Hall.
