Germann, Sr. Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2003 11:20 PM To: osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu Subject: Do we open space or... Birgitt-- Neat! A few questions: 1. Do you tell people explicitly you are talking about "Divinity?" Especially prospective "clients?" 2. You said: "mankind has so long turned away and not realized the great gift that we can all make use of." Yet I wonder about that and I cannot very well put words to my wondering. Is this gift purely potential? Or does it actualize someplace? In other words, it is probably an assumed truth in OST circles that in each group are all the answers and questions that group needs--there is no need for an outside expert to come in and solve their problems for them. From this perhaps our "Whatever happens..." derives. If we then say that the Divine gift has been given to all humans, how can we say that some people have accepted the gift and others have turned away? Even if they turn away, is not the gift there? Somewhere in the Old Testament, maybe Isaiah, there is something to the effect that "my words do not return to me empty." If the gift is given, it comes back in some form. The logical answer is your words, "when we work with it intentionally." Still, I can't help but think that no matter how loudly the 5 year old rejects the parent, the parent still loves the child, still makes the gift. Agree? Thanks, Birgitt! :-Doug. * * ========================================================== osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu, Visit: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.
