"Long have I waited for your coming home to me and living deeply our new life..."
~from Hosea by G. Norbert
In The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything, James Martin presents us with a new image of God--God as someone who helps you find your way home.
It's an image that I love...not God as puppet master, but not God as disinterested bystander either. It is God as the voice in the back of your head, God as the feeling in your gut, God as the pulls at your heartstrings, God as those deepest desires of your heart.
Right now, I am hoping that this journey I'm traveling is the one that will take me home.
