"When you begin to think outside the box, you often become some other "leaders" lousy follower. That usually costs something" (Andy Rayner)

"Our guardian angels are bored." (Mike Foster)

It's where I feel I'm at these days. “In the second half of life, it is good just to be a part of the general dance. We do not have to stand out, make defining moves, or be better than anyone else on the dance floor. Life is more participatory than assertive, and there is no need for strong or further self-definition” (Falling Upward. Richard Rohr.120).

Holy Spirit Can Pass Through Church Walls

"The spirit Works where he wills. The spirit of God cannot be restricted in his operation by the church; he is at work not only in the offices of the church, but where he wills: in the whole people of God. He is at work not only in the "holy city," but where he wills: in all the churches of the one Church. He is at work not only in the Catholic Church, but where he wiills: in Christianity as a whole. And finally he is at work not only in Christianity, but where he wills: in the whole world.

The power of the spirit of God can pass through all walls, even Church walls.....

No decrees of the Church, in doctrine or practice, can force him to act or not to act at a given time."

(Hans Küng. The Church)
