carol newbern lesson 7

[carol newbern]

Good Day, I have been blessed to meet a few of those folk who I see as Emotionally/Spiritually mature. It seems they are a cut above…Rare people. It never seemed there was a concrete way to get from here to there. So, they are role models..giving some hope..but realistically have lives that are mostly unattainable.
These lessons are encouraging…that God has made a way..and desires for us all to live out our Salvation in a deeper and richer way with others than I thought possible.

Blessings, carol

Thank you for your comment Carol. I am beginning to see that God has blessed us with a deep and rich path for us to move to Him. The path is unfathomable to me in its entirety. However, as a take one step at a time, my trust grows along with my slow progress. I realize that my understanding and relationships are completely changed. I begin to surrender my preconceived notions, even about what God is like, and He replaces my self-reliance with His strength in a tender and loving way. St. Teresa of Avila, in her final book “Interior Castle” writes about a journey through various “mansions” to arrive at the final destination – communion with God. It is really a story of spiritual formation. Glad that you are encouraged by these lessons!

In Him,
Abbot Dan
