The Japanese concept of ma – the sound of silence – is the silence that can be found between sounds. It is being present to the moment, attentive to the noises and sounds – and finding a sense of well-being, even joy, within it. It is only enjoyed, however, when there is true listening. Only when we pay attention to what we hear can we also detect the substance that is in the in between. Crucially, if I’m not listening and noticing those spaces, hearing into the nuance, the life contained with them, I “may indeed look, but not perceive,    and may indeed listen, but not understand; . . . [and fail to] turn again and be forgiven.” Mk4:12. I may not turn to you and be reconciled, or truly understand from where you are coming . . . and alienate you.   “The [Apostle’s] Creed is not a call to believe in the Church. The Creed is a call to follow the Christ.” (to read/watch more, link in bio) #JoanChittister - - - #ApostlesCreed #listen #discipleship #bejust #listen #sacrament #reconcile #covenant #instrumentofpeace #lovefirst #womenclergy #feministpriest #feministpastor #nonbinary #inclusive #lovefirst #communion #paceofgrace #thepaceofgrace #argueitout #inchoate #lovewashismeaning #reconciliation https://www.instagram.com/p/B3BJXxxAynw/?igshid=1nreb0kxbupb1

Book Review - Between The Dark and the Daylight
Book Review – Between The Dark and the Daylight
Purchase Here Between the dark and the daylight is beautifully written; although you have to pay close attention to follow the storyline. The author touches on something that I believe many persons (Christians or not) struggle with.  Joan Chittister speaks candidly about contradictions and paradoxes and pulls the reader in with her style of writing. “Only the experience of our own darkness gives…

We can go on forming people in the molds that make our patriarchal system run or we can let loose the Holy Spirit to sweep dangerously through the world.

One of the most difficult, but seasoning, elements of life is simply the fine art of getting up every morning, of doing what must be done if for no other reason than that it is our responsibility to do it […] It is in dailiness that we prove our mettle […] What makes the difference is to stay where we need to be with a sense that dailiness is the real stuff of contemplation.”

Abba Sisoes said, “Seek God, and not where God lives.” We live and breathe, grow and develop in the womb of God. And yet we seek God elsewhere - in defined places, in special ways, on mountain tops and in caves, on specific days and with special ceremonies. But the life that is full of light knows that God is not over there; God is here. And for the taking.
Sr. Joan Chittister
