Thank you sister for your candid message of humanity and judge of conscience to all of us living on this earth. Dear Lord help us to realize happiness and peace comes from knowing those in need are cared for👏🏾
SisterJoan, you pivot it for COVID-19; now the future is now~seize the moment ~the mystics and prophets are accessible to a new way to be a decent human being. The past is passed, and the opportunity for the New Earth is Birthing.” You have nourished and healed my soul. With gratitude 🙏 and Hope sustain me.
This 7 year old talk is so completely pertinent to our current 2016 world. She saw it and she called it.
Even more in 2022 🙁
🙏🏼🕊☮️
So glade to discoverer you Sister Joan Chittister...you shake us awake Thank You
I agree with you, she has been a guru of mine since i was 18 and i am now 54. She has always played a major part in my life, and i found her 3 videos, on the 'spirituality of struggle' something i really needed to listen to, through very hard times.
@Bosco's box mmm...major case of projection going on there lol
It's January 2022 & I struggle to apply this wisdom to these times.
Truth can be a hard pill to swallow. Since all of humanity has been created after the image of God, could it be that God is concerned that each would come to believe and seek Him and receive His Son. God is not just concerned about Roman Catholics, Eastern Orthodox or Protestanst. His heart is for all whom He has created, to return to Him acknowledging the sacrifice of Christ for the forgiveness of their sins. She did share much truth. Receive from the truth & grow in Christlikeness.
What a refreshing, word! Can we still stand such honesty and fidelity to Christ message in the midst of today's wide spread corruption and paganism? I hope so, or Christianity is doomed!
Thank you so much.
I often thought about these things but did not know how to put it into your words
I appreciate your work Miss C, working across so many cultures I'd like to know. Finding common ways to reach people across great divides. Does show how age long stories work in us on a individual emotional base, to unify each of us into a single voice. Do you see us reaching a single culture, if we can not loose phrases of one side challenging the others? Is the use of arcane words holding us back from understanding the advances the thinkers have done through out the centuries?
We
Religion is only divided into east and west? Wrong. A large portion of Americans are protestant Christians, yes..but the religion in the west is just as diverse as it is in the east. There are varying degrees of how you say Easterners see God. The Chinese take what you say to such an extreme as to say that we each have our own personal Gods inside of us.. and we need to focus on ourselves and how we can serve the state. Hindus and Buddhists believe more of what you say, but you forgot Islam
