To grow toward love, union, salvation, or enlightenment, we must be moved from Order to Disorder and finally to Reorder. Richard Rohr

The entire point of religion is to make us humble before God and to open us to the path of love. Everything else is more or less a footnote. Robert Barron

Master Eckhart
Meister Eckhart [c. 1260–c. 1328] speaks of a place in the depths of our soul in which God alone can dwell and in which we dwell in God. Meeting God in this place, we are invited to sink into what he calls “the eternity of the Divine essence.” Doing so, however, we never become the Divine essence. This, he says, is because “God has left a little point wherein the soul turns back on itself and finds itself, and knows itself to be a creature.” The Christian mystics do not confuse themselves and God. They know that in union with God, human personality is neither lost nor converted into divine personality. But they also know the profound inadequacy of language to either hold or communicate these deep mysteries.
