Rivers and tears flow. Sometimes I look at big old cathedrals and think what I strange thing to build. What a waste of money. Then I hear something like that and I think, yeah, maybe it's worth it. Gonna bookmark that for when I can't sleep.

The river is flowing. We are in it.” ― Richard Rohr <br /><br /> The above author has several books on my shelf; but this particular quote needs more consideration than just an insert. Life, of itself, is a stream that is known by us only in as much time we occupy in this present world. How much we simply "go with the flow" is not an option, in the sense that these waters take us in only one direction. Christ, however, spoke of our gaining access to an inner well out of which might come another river, one whose depths we might know, if only momentarily from time to time. Apply that to the author's words, get thirsty, and then simply step into such flow as God brings forth......<br /><br />Don't know, Mich. Perhaps all this rainy, gray sky weather just has had me in a funk lately. I also posted a video later that You might be interested in:<br /><br /><br />.<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxpRwWl8LnI&feature=youtu.be<br /><br /> This is a 26 minute video of a group from Crossroads just stepping into spontaneous worship inside St. Anne's church in Jerusalem. It's easy to find yourself, as you listen, to enter into His presence with them; but 19 minutes and 14 seconds into it is a visual surprise to discover just HOW easy it is.......<br /><br /><br />.<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxpRwWl8LnI&feature=youtu.be<br /><br /> This is a 26 minute video of a group from Crossroads just stepping into spontaneous worship inside St. Anne's church in Jerusalem.

I suppose the difference lies between tuning out and tuning in. And then sometimes, I think tuning out can be restful brain-quieting time. When the inner chatter finally stops, we might stop long enough to be able to feel or hear something. Just some somewhat disjointed thoughts....Daisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07074990352248493598noreply@blogger.com
