While The Impostor Draws His Identity From Past Achievements And The Adulation Of Others, The True Self Claims Identity In Its Belovedness. We Encounter God In The Ordinariness Of Life: Not In The Search For Spiritual Highs And Extraordinary, Mystical Experiences But In Our Simple Presence In Life.

If We Maintain The Open-mindedness Of Children, We Challenge Fixed Ideas And Established Structures, Including Our Own. We Listen To People In Other Denominations And Religions. We Don't Find Demons In Those With Whom We Disagree. We Don't Cozy Up To People Who Mouth Our Jargon. If We Are Open, We Rarely Resort To Either-or: Either Creation Or Evolution, Liberty Or Law, Sacred Or Secular, Beethoven Or Madonna. We Focus On Both-and, Fully Aware That God's Truth Cannot Be Imprisoned In A Small Definition.

We Must Be Ready To Allow Ourselves To Be Interrupted By God... It Is A Strange Fact That Christians And Even Ministers Frequently Consider Their Work So Important And Urgent That They Will Allow Nothing To Disturb Them. They Think They Are Doing God A Service In This But Actually They Are Disdaining God's "crooked But Straight Path". It Is Part Of The Discipline Of Humility That We Must Not Spare Our Hand Where It Can Perform Service And That We Do Not Assume That Our Schedule Is Our Own To Manage, But Allow It To Be Arranged By God.
