God be in my pain and in my enduring. God be in my plans and in my deciding. God be in my mind and in my growing. God be in my limbs and in my leisure. Amen.
From Coventry Cathedral
Thoughts: there is only one way to oneness with the Divine which is Christ in us but there are many understandings of the process. It does not matter because we see as if through a mirror darkly , our understanding compromised by our experience and culture and fears. It is God’s grace, God’s will to bring us home to God’s Self. Frankly, it isn’t our business to determine if God is doing that “right” for ourselves or anyone else. What is required is basically self-acceptance, mentally resting in the knowledge that Christ is at work in all our foibles, ideocentricities, talents, passions, even our fears. All that we are is God’s temple.
