NOW...THE APPOINTED TIME

The mind can only reprocess the past, judge the present, and worry about the future. Only some form of meditation will teach you how to move from an egocentric, fear-based life to a love-based life. - Fr. Richard Rohr, "Daily Meditation," September 5, 2014.

The ego cries, "How long, oh Lord?!"

The Lord answers, "Now."

We are the source of all our woes...for "I don't know" is a cop-out, and "I can't" is a lie.

I am is the power, I am is the snag.

The snag is always "I am thinking, analyzing, pondering." The power is always "It is I, be not afraid."

Now is the appointed time, the only acceptable time: "Choose ye this day whom you shall serve."

Thank you.
