I Asked For Wonder, And He Gave

My Trust In God Flows Out Of The Experience Of His Loving Me, Day In And Day Out, Whether The Day Is Stormy Or Fair, Whether I'm Sick Or In Good Health, Whether I'm In A State Of Grace Or Disgrace. He Comes To Me Where I Live And Loves Me As I Am.

Charles De Foucauld, The Found Of The Little Brothers Of Jesus, Wrote A Single Sentence That's Ahad A Profound Impact On My Life. He Said, "the One Thing We Owe Absolutely To God Is Never To Be Afraid Of Anything." Never To Be Afraid Of Anything, Even Death, Which, After All, Is But That Final Breakthrough Into The Open, Waiting, Outstretched Arms Of Abba.

What Makes A Genius? The Ability To See. To See What? The Butterfly In A Caterpillar, The Eagle In An Egg, The Saint In A Selfish Person, Life In Death, Unity In Separation, God In The Human And Human In God And Suffering As The Form In Which The Incomprehensibility Of God Himself Appears.

The Spirituality Of Wonder Knows The World Is Charged With Grace, That While Sin And War, Disease And Death Are Terribly Real, God's Loving Presence And Power In Our Midst Are Even More Real.

When We Wallow In Guilt, Remorse, And Shame Over Real Or Imagined Sins Of The Past, We Are Disdaining God's Gift Of Grace.
