My head is pretty much missing in inaction right now, so I'm reading over my saved quotes of various spiritual writers. This is a parsed version of a quote of Fr. Richard Rohr from back in 2013.
St Francis [of Assisi] found the transcendent not “out there” but “in here”—the transcendent was largely revealed at the depth and “inner” of things. This is what we actually mean by “angels.” Angels are the transcendent within of things. Everything, therefore, has its angel or “messenger”! They make all things “fly,” as it were, and all things are messengers of deeper messages.
If there was a snowball's chance that I could ponder that and make inner sense of it, I'd not post it today. But it'll be there for me to come back to later because I saved it for a reason back in 2013, and I'm not up to getting that reason right now...but I love it still.
Thank you.
