We are God’s word, just as the world came into being by his word. God’s word was made flesh in us at our birth. We are a mysterious incarnation of God.
We are part of God’s creative nature, part of God’s redemptive word to the whole world.
We had no idea what was in the mind of God as He created the world. Likewise, we have no idea what was in God’s mind when He begot us. We have not tried to discover the latter. We have just lived our lives and in many cases let life happen to us.
We have the opportunity every day to dialog with our life and in so doing give God the opportunity to reveal to us important information. And invite us to transformation.
