Thomas Merton (Thoughts in Solitude):
My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think I am following Your will does not mean that I am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please You does in fact please You. And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing. I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that, if I do this, You will lead me by the right road, though I may know nothing about it. Therefore I will trust You always though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death. I will not fear, for You are ever with me, and You will never leave me to face my perils alone. Amen.
A view from Humpback Rock.
James Cone:
It was not my task to interpret the gospel in a form acceptable to white racists and their sympathizers.
May we all abandon that task. May all such interpretations perish.
This is the view from Richmond Hill, where I spent the morning planning and praying before returning to work next week after a wonderful sabbatical. I was joined by two kestrels, incessantly calling.
