“In the Divine Arms….”
May 29th, 2008 “Most of us have to taste our need in a fierce sort of way before our hungers jar us into turning our lives over to God…. In the Divine Arms we become less demanding and more like the One who holds us. Then we experience new hungers. We hunger and thirst for justice, for goodness and holiness. We hunger for what is right. We hunger to be saints. Most of us are not nearly hungry enough for the things that really matter. That’s why it is so good for us to feel a gnawing in our guts.
