“Dear God, I cannot love
you the way I want to. You are the slim crescent of a moon that I see and my
self is the earth’s shadow that keeps me from seeing all the moon . . . what I am
afraid of, dear God, is that my self shadow will grow so large that it blocks
the whole moon, and that I will judge myself by the shadow that is nothing. I
do not know you God because I am in the way.”
~Flannery O’Connor
Dear God, please re-orient me and remove my
self-absorption. May this be a blessed
Lenten journey...
