SSJE - The Radical Practice of Contemplation – Br. Keith Nelson

I’ve been in need of this reminder: “God is not a being external to us, not an object out there, but the subject of all that is. God is Being itself – if you be, if you are, if you have been brought into existence, you are participating in God. We are not separate from God, from one another, or from the earth.”
