The author is a Catholic priest who has had experience in
teaching and social work as well as parish ministry. What he writes
about is intended for the widest possible cross section of the
community. He is as eager to avoid moralizing as he is to share his
insights. Very often these reflections challenge a narrow concept of
belief and encourage us to have a wider vision. We 'journey into awe'
when we begin to see that everything is relevant to our relationship
with God. The author would argue that not only is everyone called to
this deeper way of life but that in fact the majority of people are
living a spiritual life without realizing it. These reflections will
deepen our awareness of this truth.
The book s divided into four sections. The first two provide insights
from reading the gospels and from approaching God in prayer. Section
three raises questions we may have in the course of our journey
towards personal fulfilment. The last section contains short stories
or vignettes from everyday life, written in dialogue form. Be assured
that the poetic reflections contain none of the difficulties often
associated with the reading of modern poetry. These stories and verses
make for easy reading, yet often their message is quite
profound. Since each reflection is unique the verses and vignettes may
be read (and hopefully re-read!) in any order.
