EXQUISITE WILDFLOWERS HIDDEN WITHIN

[God] creates exquisite wildflowers in hidden valleys that no human eye will ever see—just for the inherent joy and beauty of it! -- Fr. Richard Rohr, "Daily Meditation," December 15, 2014

As I read that the thought occurred that this exquisite place is within us, and it is only reachable through attunement with God.

To realize our attunement, first, we come to believe there is that place within. Then that it is reachable only through God's lifting us deeper into it. The  reasoning mind cannot get us there, and thinking, trying only creates a more impenetrable mental block.

Meditation in whatever form we meditate is one path. Opening our mind to the unacceptable as God's gift to us is another.

We make ourselves available to God...we clear our mind without straining,,,we sit and wait on the Lord.

No one knows the day or hour the bridegroom will come. [From somewhere in the Bible.]

Thank you.
