Eternally Real God
The movement from illusion to prayer undergirds and makes possible the movements from loneliness to solitude and from hostility to hospitality, and leads us to the core of the spiritual life. It is through this movement that we reach out to God, our God, the one who is eternally real, and from whom all reality comes forth.
“He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation, for in him all things in heaven and on earth were created, things visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powers—all things have been created through him and for him. He himself is before all things, and in him all things hold together.”
- Colossians 1: 15 - 17
Reflection Question: Which of the three movements seems most significant to you in this season of your life (loneliness to solitude; hostility to hospitality; illusion to prayer)?
