Mark 1:35 … Never alone (01/09/14)
How deliciously ironic it is that regular moments of deep solitude allow for regular expressions of pure Kindness; that in soaking even briefly in pure isolation, we remember that we are never alone.
Amen … Let it be so.
“In the morning, while it was still very dark, he got up and went up alone to a deserted place, and there he prayed.” ~ Mark 1:35
“And after he had sent them onward, he went up the mountain to pray. And evening came, and he was there by himself.” ~ Matthew 14:23
“And then our solitude is overcome, and we are no longer alone, for we find that our innermost self is the Spirit; that it is God, the indivisible. And suddenly we find ourselves in the midst of the world, yet undisturbed by its multiplicity, for from our innermost Soul we know ourselves to be one with all Being.” ~ Hermann Hesse
