Given that all of creation is an expression of God's hidden self, our call to heal, to repair and to transform that, which is broken, is truly a holy gesture, a standing in wonder before God and the creation. Tikkun is not a passive posture of simple assent but rather is a total life lived in constant dialogue and healing action with all creation, with all that is God. I call to the spruce Your offspring has come to you. For many spiritual writers, the sense of wonder is basic to all religious consciousness. We are invited in wonder to make our lives holy and the world more whole.
Wonder is an act of healing.
