BEST of PONDER on THIS for Monday, December 12th, 2016 by Paul Ferrini in THE SILENCE OF THE HEART

“If you are going to let God be in charge of your life, you have to give up the idea that you “know.” Increasingly, you develop the attitude that your job is just to show up, to be present, to let things happen. You know you are not the one who makes your life work. So you stop trying. You stop trying to figure things out. And you just show up and do what you are asked to do in the moment. You can’t know God’s plan as long as you insist on your own. God can’t be in charge as long as you think you are the boss.”

Paul Ferrini, in “The Silence of the Heart”
