It is by first passing through and celebrating our sense of awe, wonder, gratitude and joy that we are able to enter into darkness and the mystery of The Void. This is what carries us through the other side into a new season of creation and reinvention. This is the lantern that we bring with us into the cave, that burning ember — or promise of the birth of the Christ child within — that gives us hope.
Most of my attempts to connect and relate to God – involve silence.
And most frequently, not much more than that.
I sometimes wonder if there’s really much difference between seeking to connect to God – and not seeking to. Similar experience and results.
