QuoteThere's a monk up in the Genessee Abbey. He's been there 30 years. A visitor asked him, "Do you feel as close to God as you did when you went in 30 years ago?" And the monks glorious answer was, "No, but now it doesn't matter." He was so freed from the need to feel loved that he could indiscriminately accept consolation or desolation, God's presence or God's absence, as one and the same thing. With the rise and fall of my fragile feelings, thank God that the presence of God within me doesn't depend on my fickle feelings, or I'd be in a deep caca. -Brennan Manning-
