FOR THE BENEFIT OF OTHERS

A participatory theology says, 'I am being chosen, I am being led, I am being used.' After conversion, you know that your life is not about you; you are about life! You are about God. You’re an instance of both the agony and the ecstasy of God that is already happening inside of you, and all you can do is say yes to it. That’s conversion and it changes everything. -- Fr Richard Rohr, "Daily Meditations," August 12, 2025

Apparently, my spiritual growth now is in my more fully realizing that I am changed. Interesting that it seems like my change is taking me back to the untalking one I once was. 

Of course! What was our path is our path. God's will is ever guiding us as our freewill walks with us. 

It is continuing spiritual growth that lifts us up and over freewill (a.k.a., self will), only now it is to get us fret-free to the new place of God's will, God's way for the benefit of others.

Thank you.
