Our shadow is what we refuse to see about ourselves, and what we do not want others to see. The movement to second-half-of-life wisdom has much to do with necessary shadow work and the emergence of healthy self-critical thinking, which alone allows us to see beyond our own shadow and disguise and to find who we are.... -- Fr Richard Rohr, Daily Meditation, June 18, 2023
If man lived apart with Me and only went out to serve at My direct command, My Spirit could operate more and accomplish truly mighty things. -- God Calling, June 18
It is My spirit that is making all the small changes in me Now...all leading to the egoically unfavorable changed me as I acknowledge with praise and gratitude (thank you) and resist not.
This, then, must be Fr Richard's second-half-of-life wisdom, and I do feel gratitude. Baffled but grateful.
Blinding flash of the obvious: Worrit not how, praise the unknowable how as we are led.
Thank you.
