INVITE COMMON CAUSE

Before 313, the church was on the bottom of society, which is the privileged vantage point for understanding the liberating power of Gospel for both the individual and for society. Within the space of a few decades, the church moved from the bottom to the top, literally from the catacombs to the basilicas.* * * Much of Jesus’ teaching about simple living, nonviolence, inclusivity, and love of enemies became incomprehensible.* * * [Ever remember] the profound power of powerlessness that Jesus revealed. -- Fr Richard Rohr, "Daily Meditation," September 3, 2018

I feel rested in my continuing realization that all there is is nothing at all...infinity on the point of a pin. That less is more. That fear is God's camouflage, ever bringing our Awareness nearer. The greater our fear, the nearer our Father. That our need is to realize love of the unlovable and to  accept the unacceptable. To love and laugh.

We are heading in the right direction when we learn to respond not in kind, i.e., resist not, but invite common cause if only in our own mind for that is lonely battle enough.

Thank you.
