I acknowledge God's presence in our lives and God's call to grow in Jesus Christ, commit ourselves to strengthen, promote and extend a community of Justice, Faith, Love and Peace. At present I live this mission by being a Eremitic Monk whose path is CONTEMPLATION: by the strength of the spirit, to live as continually as possible in the light of the love of God for us, made manifest in Christ.
Prayer is openness to reality, openness of our whole person to the unpredictable gift of all that is real. Our ideas are merely transfer copies of a part of what is real, seen from a certain angle. Wanting to enclose God in our ideas is like trying to enclose him in a poor caricature of ourselves.
Prayer is the respiration of faith. Faith, precisely, is willing to take the risk of going beyond what can be verified. We are always confronted with the same challenge to go out of ourselves and our poor limits, towards the unknown horizons of Love.
A heart that is inclined to love, will love. This is a great gift, and already the fruit of much love.
The place of contemplative prayer is the domain of one who loves. Its feast is the gift freely given: ultimately, the gift of receptivity.
-Interior Prayer, p138

What/who changed my life and why
Jesus saith unto him, I am the WAY, the Truth, and the Life; and no man cometh to the FATHER, but by me. (John 14:6)
