Hi everyone,
I went to a new bible study course on the story of the prodigal son. This came about after meeting someone at the garage where my car was being fixed, we had a good connection, and he called and invited me to a six week course..
What came out in the first session was the role of the second brother, who stayed home, tried to be good, yet didnt care about the fathers heart, wanting his wealth and status more than he wanted to honor the father. It came clear how even though God has my number, I still have a couple of selfish agendas, and it struck me what it was to desire the kingdom of God more than anything thing else, to desire the heart and emptiness through the way of letting go as the only desire that matters and what it means to be true to that.. and feeling so much clarity in this recognition.. feel it ties in with my dream on the weekend of more heart surgery, and the heart now being pure and with that purity comes clarity.. and the deepening these few days into what emptiness and the unseen actually means as the primary lived reality, and the clarity from that living..
the more you let go the more the heart opens and reveals .. :)
profound.. simple.. beautiful..
Rumi again..
“We have a huge barrel of wine but no cups.
Thats fine with us. Every morning
we glow and in the evening we glow again.
They say there’s no future for us. They’re right.
Which is fine with us”
love
Bruce
