Fr Richard has shared that our tendency to isolate ourselves springs from a genuine need for the inner work of contemplation. There again, the bane is the boon...the counterintuitive way of the Lord.
I feel myself opening further to my need for the inner work of contemplation...and I recognize that has been the well-hidden driver and keeper of my heart and Soul my entire life.

Whenever I have that skin's-on-crooked feeling, I know, and I know I know..."God's hand is in this." I was discomfited to learn that some friends heard that as my saying that God was the cause of my upset. Ah, when will we ever learn? I am the source of all of my woes, remembered.
We are the root of our rues, regrets and remorses, our less-thans. God's hand is in it to pull us through, to bring us to him. God's hand is love's guide.
To know I am One with God is my desire divine...only God can move that to my heart and my Soul. I've got more than enough me-wants, but I have only one need...God's will, God's way.
Thank you.
