What a blessing Stephen has brought to us!

"Suppose these two to be or not to be dovetail perfectly? Am I their very absence and yet presence. Are they not like two sides of the same coin? It is because like Shakespeare's Hamlet they are divided into two, that the currency of our life seems so shabby and cheap. But bring these two sides together into a perfect oneness, and all the shabbiness and debased nature they have in separation goes out the window."

Surely a great mystery like Christ and His body, a work that only He can do and enlighten us to see-- even as it's being done in the midst, or right under our noses! I'm just beginning to see how blessed I am for the privilege of being a spectator of such a thing unfold right in my household, as well as other places!

And I believe we only become aware of the depth of this amazing thing as we experience the reality of the very words as expressed by St. John of the Cross --"To have all things I must have nothing, to know all things I must know nothing, and to be all things I must be nothing."

Truthfully it goes far beyond all the nothing -- to be Just IS!
