A Speaking Mirror
For you to be reading this means you’re endeavouring to live the divine life. That’s not to say you’re trying to be a saint. There are no saints. Living the divine life as an ordinary man or woman simply means you are doing your best to be true - true to life, true to yourself.
To live the divine life you need a mirror. You need to see your life as it is - not as others tell you it should be or as you wish it were. You need to see what you are doing with your life and what you are not doing with it.
The monthly talks provide this mirror. I talk of life and living as it is. And you’ll be amazed how often what I am speaking about describes exactly what’s happening in your life now, or something you’re having to cope with.
Like any real mirror I don’t tell you what to do. When you see for yourself, you know what to do. And that ends confusion.
