At Your Assistance

I assisted today in church for the first time since Mom got sick. It felt good.

In so many ways it is a relief to know that I am, like everyone else, a beggar. One of the horrible burdens of rigid belief -- on whatever end of the spectrum it is found -- is that it demands some impossible ideal of rule-adhered perfection of others and of self, ideals that cannot be ever attained and sustained. The days that work best for my spirit are the ones in which I accept that I will screw up in some way, but that my intention will be as pristine as possible. I know there is that old saying about "The road to hell" being paved with good intentions -- but I think that's wrong. I think it is the Road to the Kingdom. Thanks for another great post.

Please just read this in the direction of your post which preceded it. (And I am laughing now about intentions and screwing up -- see what I mean???) LOL
