Richard Rohr, OFM

We need healing images and courageous people to image us at our best.

Let’s allow ourselves to be known! All the way through. Nothing to hide from, in ourselves, from ourselves, or from God.

Humans always need more “light” or enlightenment about themselves and about the endless mystery of God.

God wants useable instruments who will carry the mystery, the weight of glory and the burden of sin simultaneously.

We move to a deeper level of Being ourselves when we genuinely receive the being and the gaze of the self-giving Jesus.

If God would accept us now, when we are clearly unworthy, then why would God change the policy later?

Stop trying. Stop forcing reality. Learn the mystery of surrender and trust, and then it will be done unto you, through you, with you, in you, and, very often, in spite of you
