Limits

It is not himself that God creates, not himself he redeems, even when he “reveals himself” it is not himself he reveals: his revelation does not have himself as an object. He limits himself in all his limitlessness, he makes room for the creatures, and so, in love to him, he makes room for love to the creatures.
