The Root of Our Troubles
Selfishness – self-centeredness! That, we think, is the root of our troubles. How amazing the revelation that the world, and everyone in it, can get along just fine with or without me. What a relief to know that people, places and things will be perfectly okay without my control and direction. And how wordlessly wonderful to come to believe that a power greater than me exists separate and apart from myself. I believe that the feeling of separation I experienced between me and God will one vanish. In the meantime, faith must serve as the pathway to the center of my life.
