Quotations for reflection this week are drawn from Thomas Keating’s book, Open Mind, Open Heart: the Contemplative Dimension of the Gospel.
“Faith is opening and surrendering to God. The spiritual journey does not require going anywhere because God is already with us and in us. It is a question of allowing our ordinary thoughts to recede into the background and to float along the river of consciousness without our noticing them, while we direct our attention toward the river on which they are floating.”
-Thomas Keating, Open Mind, Open Heart: the Contemplative Dimension of the Gospel
