“Your will be done.” Jesus “Conversations Within” ts 8/27/2019
Grace modeste- an "unassuming grace." Any discussion of a spiritual nature should reflect this mutual kindness. The following are simply my devotional reflections each morning. I cast them like "bread upon the waters," hoping that all who find them will find something of value to nurture their own inner life.

“Purity of heart is to will one thing.” Sören Kierkegaard
I want God’s will. The problem is that I also want things contrary to it. This inner conflict is a daily, and often a moment to moment battle. I am tempted to pass judgment, or be critical or angry or selfish or the many other “wrapped up in oneself” attitudes. But I also have the calming presence of Christ inside, calling me the other way. One is the path of peace, the other a path of turmoil. The peace comes from not only knowing what God wants, but in surrender to it.
