So much of life is deliberately hidden from view

  the expansion of the soul has its requirements:  first the courage to do in the face of all human opinion; then the certitude of the Law, the knowledge that one is functioning according to higher design; next the fruition of the Law must be achieved, the maturation of the quality one seeks; and finally the physical manifestation is perceived by mortal men. 

  So much of life is deliberately hidden from view for if were revealed, there would be danger of intruding destruction upon the divine design.  If human perceptions were to become aware at a given moment of all that God could or would do, they might mar the purity of the divine matrix with their imperfect patterns.                 -Pallas Athena:  Pearls of Wisdom 13:46
