orthodoxy

I tend to come down on the side of the individual's conscience. It seems to me that's what all the great saints have followed... and that it takes great courage. To be open to the truth requires courage and to enter dialogue seeking the truth is also brave. True humility... deep connection to the Christ... that is love...always aware that there are ways we can be deceived... full of care, careful to protect that which is oh so precious...

I am particularly aware today of the need to act with humility. It isn't easy and it isn't easy to fake. I can fake being brave, and God will give me courage. I can play act at caring until God gives me true compassion. Humility, though, seems to require my own letting go first.
