WE GO TO GOD FOR GOD, AND THAT IS ALL

In the prophetic worldview, God supports falling forward, mistake-ridden risk-taking, and boundary crossing for the sake of growth in consciousness and relationship. -- Rabbi Nahum Ward-Lev in Fr Richard Rohr's Daily Meditation, January 6, 2023

This leg of my journey, the consciousness raising or the exchanging of my mind, confirms my long-ago blinding flash of the obvious that spiritually God's will, God's way is upside down, backward, opposite to the material world's view. 

I felt comforted recently when I read Steve Job's quote that it is the crazy ones who think they can change the world, the round pegs in the square holes, who actually do so because they see things differently. 

We see things differently. We can own that with the caveat that our world is changed because we see things differently. 

For instance, in the material world, both sides can lose but only one can win. In the spiritual world, there is no win/lose. 

The "loser" is the "winner" for just like fear, it leaves us no place to go but to God. Losing lifts us to God...we are Oned; winning leaves us with nothing but ego...alone in a word.

We go to God for God, and that is all...for that is all.

Thank you.
