THE PICTURE FRAME
"God can only come in with mystical over-and-above help when we have reached our limits and can go no further.” Ruth Burrows.
Reflection:
There comes a moment when the picture frame falls away.
And we can go further.
Amen

Thomas Merton captures the meaning of inner pilgrimage for me when he says: "I look into my own heart and see a big mess, contradictions, (trauma and loss). When I see this, I have to travel it." I no longer see trauma and loss when I look into my heart-- thanks be to God. I see living alone now as making the return inner pilgrimage "on crowded spiritual path," that when nurtured, can be "a love offering to God." And a beautiful one as well. Amen ⛵
