Spiritual Direction is a journey to explore one’s spiritual path and true self alongside someone who is skilled in listening, in reflection, and in discernment; an exploration holding space to be vulnerable and to nurture one’s loving relationship with God (the divine Creator) in communion with the sacred Spirit.

Here is a message from Henri Nouwen that speaks to where I am in this season...

Radical Waiting

I have found it very important in my own life to try to let go of my wishes and instead to live in hope. I am finding that when I choose to let go of my sometimes petty and superficial wishes and trust that my life is precious and meaningful in the eyes of God, something really new, something beyond my own expectations begins to happen in me. To wait with openness and trust is an enormously radical attitude toward life. It is choosing to hope that something is happening for us that is far beyond our own imaginings. It is giving up control over our future and letting God define our life. It is living with the conviction that God molds us in love, holds us in tenderness, and moves us away from the sources of our fear. Our spiritual life is a life in which we wait, actively present to the moment, expecting that new things will happen to us, new things that are far beyond our own imagination or prediction. This, indeed, is a very radical stance toward life in a world preoccupied with control.
