God is not…

california-3

God is not the being
who closely examines me
but the one who permits me
to be myself to the fullest.

With each breaking…

path-to-wnoleness

With each breaking
will emerge, in time,
a path to wholeness.

No matter…

suffering

No matter how big
your suffering,
may you find
comfort in this:
it is too small
to contain you.

If you’ve never…

if-youve-never-3

If you’ve never wrestled with God,
you’ve yet to set foot on your spiritual path.

Blurs and Distorts

blur-and-distort-2

The ego’s excessive need
for approval and control
blurs and distorts reality
creating illusion
and much inner suffering.

The Truth of Who You Are

tsssi1487867399

In your yearning
to live the truth
of who you are,
stop and remember,
“He emptied himself.”
(Phil. 2:8)

Opinions

Shaking loose from
stubborn attachment
to your opinions
will help create
a welcoming space
for Truth.
