The Face of God

The final line in the movie and maybe the book, "Les Miserables" is, "To love another human being, is to see the face of God."  It will makes sense if you read the book or go see the movie.  We are not talking romantic love, puppy love, make-me-happy love.  To love another human being when it costs you something important to yourself, is to see the face of God.  Jesus on the cross, both sees "Father" and gives up his life for love of others, most of whom do not care.  I guess, if you want to see the face of God, shelve the theology book and take up your cross.
