Rainer Maria Rilke wrote, “Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue.

Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them.  And the point is, to live everything.

Live the questions now.

Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.”

Rilke gives us great insight into our prayer life, occasionally God answers us directly and clearly most times God is forming us to trust Jesus, the Word Made Flesh.  Jesus shows us the way, the truth and the life we choose how to respond.

  

We can TRUST that God has the Kingdom under control; we need to live the Lord’s way to show a glimpse of its wonder and beauty.

St. Thomas Aquinas "To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary. To one without faith, no explanation is possible."

Today pray with Trust that God who created you and loves you is with you, your prayer opens your heart and your soul to that love, so love the questions and the gift of faith in God.

May God Be Praised!
