ON GIVING GOD A GRIN

Stop trying to figure it out....Your only task now is to set your soul free. -- Saint John of the Cross --
Fr Richard Rohr's Daily Bulletin, July 16, 2025

I am feeling so...empty? un?...un what I do not know. Simply, un.

Unknowing is scary to the reasoning mind which believes it knows, or scarier, should know...and does not.

I choose to believe I am in the grace of unknowing and my need is to welcome that...go beyond reason to love.

We know we cannot will going beyond reason...because it is reason that is determining our need.

I have been in this state of unknowing since 3:00 AM, April 30th. No...that was the blinding flash...all the rest has been me virtually arm wrestling with God about the flash. What to do? How? With what? I stymie myself that way, then pray the Lord come to my rescue.

There it is: Stop trying to figure it out....Your only task now is to set your soul free. [Uh-oh...how?, etc. This is also known by me as giving God a grin.]

Thank you.
