Everyone’s an infinitely loved, broken person in a fleeting, often not-so-fair, gorgeous, lovely, unexplainable world. -- James Finley, Fr Richard Rohr's Daily Meditation, April 8, 2024
There's the secret...the secret to still more spiritual growth. We already are that which we are seeking.
Reminds us of the can't see the forest for the trees adage...we can't find our growth for pushing it out of the way looking for our growth.
Then there is thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. We go to great lengths to avoid our own conception of that one. The reasoning mind can only think painful!, when in the counterintuitive spiritual world, thy rod and thy staff bring love and laughter. The painful part is getting over our own self to awake to love and laughter.
We can never enter the counterintuitive spiritual world by rational thinking...it comes in God's good time by way of inner awakening.
Go beyond reason to find joy in being an infinitely loved broken person in this counterintuitive spiritual world.
Thank you.
