Mother Teresa


I've recently heard that they are going to publish some of Mother Teresa's journals in which she admits to being very disillusioned. Some have seen this as discouraging, but I can't help but find it hopeful. It fits into what I'm learning about faith- that faith is not present without doubt, and that wisdom does come at the cost of innocence. The question that remains is how we live into such truths? I am starting to think the answer comes through community. That like the Trinity, God himself lives in relationship and desires that we too would walk together, living out loud the Trinity we experience. And when God feels far away to let others embrace us when we face the horrors, as well as the beauties of this world.
Seems too easy.
