Day 19 | The loving voice of wisdom (& Richard Rohr)
Description
Everyday I ask the loving voice of wisdom, which dwells in our hearts and in this world: “What would you have me know today?” And then I listen. This is what I heard one day, not long ago…
From elsewhere:
“Tolerance and openness are virtues in the life of one with clear authority; they are sad excuses in the lives of those afraid of their own authority.” (Richard Rohr)
From my heart:
I know, you preached about self-righteousness.
And those who know you most closely see that vice in you.
And I know, you yourself are torn between confident knowing and humble curiosity.
You fear the passivity that childs within you, even while shying away from the strength of purpose that anchors your heart.
No time here to sort it all out for you.
But walk with this today:
Clear authority of self is not torn.
There is power, as well you know, in the confluence of humble courage.
