“The More We Let God Take Us Over...

“The more we let God take us over, 

the more truly ourselves we become - 

because He made us. 

He invented us. 

He invented all the different people 

that you and I were intended to be. . .

It is when I turn to Christ, 

when I give up myself to His personality, 

that I first begin to have a real personality of my own.” 

~C.S. Lewis - 

Time is a Sort of River of Passing Events...

Time is a sort of river of passing events,

and strong is its current; 

no sooner is a thing brought to sight than it is swept by 

and another takes its place, and this too will be swept away. 

~Marcus Aurelius

"The Cloud of Unknowing" ...

"The cloud of unknowing" 

In the last chapters the author writes 

of those times when we feel alone and abandoned. 

He explains that it is God's way 

of having our soul become supple & strong 

and his goings and comings stretch you, 

secretly testing your soul, 

gentling you to do his work.

In the Beautiful Act of Having Faith...

In the beautiful act of having faith in oneself 

there is an inherent acquiescence 

to a "higher Right" or a higher truth... 

perhaps it is a more divine perspective.

I Have Found That Faith...

I have found that faith strengthens over time, 

for me, by verifications found in various places particularly reading. 

So finding the same sayings 

over and over but from diversly different people, 

ages and countries. 

The profound truths that are there for us to discover 

when we have faith to continue looking 

and faith to use them in our lives. 

The stronger my faith the stronger my relationship to Higher truths 

and the more there is to verify.
