IMAGINATION

'We who are made in the "image" of God have, as a consequence, imag-ination. Imagination is the capacity to make connections between the visible and the invisible, between heaven and earth., between the present and past, between present and future. For Christians, whose largest investment is in the invisible, the imagination is indispensable, for its is only by means of the imagination that we can see the reality whole, in context. "What the imagination does with reality is the reality we live by."' 
Eugene H Peterson, Under the Unpredictable Plant, p.170.
