The Eclipse of God as a Fault of Contemplation




"The earth is ablaze with the fire of God, but only those who see it take their shoes off" - Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Contemplation is about waking up and seeing the extraordinary in the ordinary. God is looking for people who contemplate and are aware of His presence in the every day moments of life. Life is full of pressures, stress, busyness and so much work that pushes out the contemplative life where God is only an after thought or shadow of reality.

Are we awake to the dance of creation with God the dancer who gives and holds all life together.  When we see life correctly, we see everything in life is a gift.  Abundant living is purity of heart where everything is seen through the prism of God's love.
