Here are two quotes from Richard
Rohr, from his book "Everything Belongs:"
“Faith
does not need to push the river precisely because it is able to trust that there
is a river. …the river is flowing; we are in it. The river is God’s providential
love – so do not be afraid.”
"Everything belongs; God uses
everything. There are no dead ends. There is no wasted energy. Everything is
recycled. Sin history and salvation history are two sides of one coin. When you
"get" forgiveness, you get it. We use the phrase "falling in love." I think
forgiveness is almost the same thing. It's a mystery we fall into: the mystery
is God. God forgives all things for being imperfect, broken and poor. The people
who know God well- the mystics, the hermits, those who risk everything to find
God - always meet a lover, not a dictator. God is a lover who receives and
forgives everything."
Richard Rohr
