Wonder

We can search to the point where only wonder will do or we can turn the spiritual life into some kind of corporate strategy aimed at storing up rituals in return for heaven.”  Joan Chittister

Chittister notes that all faith leads to some doubt, or at least to “the point where only wonder will do….”  Faith that leads to certainty, particularly faith that seems to suggest that I have figured it all out (and THEY haven’t) isn’t really faith at all.

In any event, I like that phrase – “the point where only wonder will do….”
