The Sermon on the Mount is not about preserving the status quo! It’s about living here on earth as if the reign of God has already begun. In this reign, the Sermon tells us, the poor are blessed, the hungry are filled, the grieving are filled with joy, and enemies are loved. -- Richard Rohr's Daily Meditation
Blinding flash of the obvious: Unselfed...dementia; ah, answered prayer.
If dementia be our answered prayer, then that is where God is...in the dementia which we welcome. It is in welcoming the less-thans of life that fear is transmuted unto peace.
The transformation is the blessing.
Fear...we hug it, we kiss it, we let it go, and we live in the reign of God.
Thank you.
