This time for sure
How many of us read book after book or attend lectures, retreats, and workshops with the thought that this author, this story, or that technique will finally provide the spiritual breakthrough we seek? This time, we hope, we will finally “get it.” No program or series of steps, though, can give us the deep faith we desire. We may draw inspiration and courage from the experiences and insights of others, but ultimately if it is to be our faith—one that is living, changing, growing, deepening, and expanding—then it must come from within. Jesus knew that of course, but his disciples did not, so we have lots of company. Are you looking outside yourself for what can only be found within?
