There is no need at all to make long discourses; it is enough to stretch out one's hand and say, “Lord, as you will, and as you know, have mercy.” And if the conflict grows fiercer say, “Lord help!” God knows very well what we need and He shows us His mercy.

Oh, boy. It’s been nearly a month since my last post. Mostly I’ve been busy with stuff. The personal stuff (work, daily grind, etc.) is mostly pretty boring, but you can read about it on my Yahoo! Groups website.

Well, mostly boring. Something is happening in my life that is not so boring. My heart beats more quickly; I smile more often; and generally, life is more liveable. I can now hope with faith in God that the future really is a brighter place than the past. In looking at my changing circumstances, I thank God more than ever for leading me on all the winding paths I have taken so far.

My spiritual father once related words of comfort that he was given by his confessor: At the end, when you look back on your life, all the winding roads you took will appear as a straight line, leading directly to God. I never understood that. All the plot-lines of my story seemed untidy, unresolved. Now, some of them are coming together in a way beyond my imagining, and the providence of God amazes me.
