We have to accept what is given to us by the Holy Spirit. However, these difficulties disappear when one puts everything in the context of the great cause. That was my difficulty. All questions have become isolated questions and thus none of them can ever become clear. The secret of God's kingdom is polarity and universality.
All questions become one question.
I feel that my life is like an empty vessel held out open to be filled by God's Spirit. In present-day churches and Christian communities it is customary to pray with hands and fingers folded together, with head bowed and eyes closed. In early Christian times the posture in prayer expressed what Kathleen has just said. This is the prayer of one who knows that he is empty and believes that he will be filled. Surely it will soon be given to us, too, to come before God in this way.
