LOOKING THROUGH GOD TO GOD

The energy in the universe is not in the planets or in the protons or neutrons, but in the relationship between them. Not in the particles but in the space between them. Not in the cells of organisms but in the way the cells feed and give feedback to one another. Not in any precise definition of the three persons of the Trinity as much as in the relationship between the Three! This is where all the power for infinite renewal is at work: The loving relationship between them. The infinite love flowing between them. The dance itself. - Fr Richard Rohr, "Daily Meditation," April 29, 2018

God speaks when God speaks. Or, more aptly, we hear when we hear. It was a long time ago that I first heard about God living in the space between...just in the space between. There were exercises to help realize that, and I did them. Never really got it but accepted it...and forgot about it.

Then I read the above and flashed on: It is in the space between where God lives. I just got it. It's akin to WiFi...all power is in the space between -  no wires are needed, no spoken words, either!

There. That's how I make truths my own...simplify, simplify, simplify. I have no idea if WiFi ever uses wires...I still don't know what WiFi stands for, for heaven's sake. The important thing is I get the picture, the picture of all power in the space between.

The space wherein God lives is the space between the blocks, the words, we use...most times in trying to find God.

I can know love in the space between me and my little boy who is invisible to my eyes today. For that matter, I can realize love between me and a friend who lives across country from me today. I can imagine a hardened heart being softened by forgiveness with no words being spoken, just an inner  space opens and forgiveness flows.

I'm guessing it is in that knowing, that realizing, that imagining...that space between...that I am looking through God to God.

Thank you.
