One thing above all is important: the “return to the Father.” The Son came into the world and died for us, rose and ascended to the Father; sent us His Spirit, that in Him and with Him we might return to the Father. That we might pass clean out of the midst of all that is transitory and inconclusive: return to the Immense, the Primordial, the Source, the Unknown, to Him Who loves and knows, to the Silent, to the Merciful, to the Holy, to Him Who is All.
To seek anything, to be concerned with anything but this is only madness and sickness, for this is the whole meaning and heart of all existence, and in this all the affairs of life, all the needs of the world and of men, take on their right significance: all point to this one great return to the Source.
Thomas Merton
dear lord-
Each day I think I am making decisions on my life when I know the best results are in what I can not know. Send me ur knowledge in the shining love u place in my heart. Stop me from making decisions as they take me away from you. Guide my heart to share only love in you, through u and with u god in the unity with the holy Spirit. I am
Amen
