May 31

Chapter 7 pt. 6

The Rule of Benedict May 31

It's one thing to love not my own will, it's another thing to be able to distinguish between my will for myself and God's will for me.  This is, I believe, the crux of what we refer to as discernment.  I envision our order to have the capacity to function as a discernment committee for its members.  How often would the significant decisions I face in life benefit from a patient listening in community to the Spirit's voice?
