Feb. 18: Day by Day with Father Bill
THURSDAY AFTER ASH WEDNESDAY
– from The Wisdom Pattern: Order, Disorder, Reorder by Father Richard Rohr, OFM
Let us be present to the now. It’s all we have and it’s where God will always speak to us. The now holds everything, rejects nothing and, therefore, can receive God, too. Help us, God, to be present to the place we most fear, because it always feels empty, it always feels boring, it always feels like it’s not enough. Help us find some space within that we don’t try to fill with ideas or opinions. Help us find space so you, loving God, can show yourself in that place where we are hungry and empty. Keep us out of the way, so there is always room enough for you.
