A Lay Cistercian Looks at Spiritual Reality
Sometimes God wait for us on a bench in what may seem like impossible conditions. In contemplation, I realize that there are three levels of awareness I must master.
Good — I wait for God to meet me because I made the appointment with Him and I have something to ask or need help
Better- I wait for God to show up for my appointment, although I did not get a confirmation back. I just want to meet Him as an old friend.
Best: I wait for God to show up with no agenda, no words, no thoughts, no petitions, no hope for my glory. I don’t know if God will show up or not, but I HOPE. In truth, God never left me.
God meets me in snow and rain, in heat and in cold, in Summer, Winter, Spring, or Fall, in the morning and the evening.
