"Before
I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated
you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations." (Jeremiah 1:5)
Our
lives are not puzzles to be figured out.
Rather, we come to God, who knows us and reveals to us the truth of our
lives. The fundamental mistake is to
begin with ourselves and not God. God is
the center from which all life develops.
If we use our ego as the center from which to plot the geometry of our
lives, we will live eccentrically.
