“We seek to control everything when real spirituality is lodged in letting the spirit control us – in noticing the beauty and opportunity of circumstance, in finding good currents instead of swimming upstream, in seeking and accepting guidance from our ideas, our impressions, and our insights – in becoming sagacious enough to find the joy of spontaneity and inspiration, the adventure of the unexpected, the attitude of spiritual serendipity.
We seek ownership (which, as a paradigm, always brings with it envy and jealousy or conceit and pride) when true spirituality is obtained from understanding that we own nothing and God owns all, from seeking, instead, treasures of heaven, from adopting the attitude of spiritual stewardship.”
Richard Eyre, in “Spiritual Serendipity”
