Bible

A challenging prayer for Fundamentalists/Pharisees…

 

Give me humility in which alone is rest,

and deliver me from pride which is the heaviest of burdens.

 

And possess my whole heart with the simplicity of love…

(Thomas Merton).

 

(And help me to move my thinking from simplicity this side of complexity through to simplicity the other side of complexity… And to realize that for Pharisees repentance precedes acceptance – ‘you change and you’ll be acceptable around here’ – but for Jesus it was the other way around…).
