“Because we are willing to acknowledge that something or someone is greater than we are, it becomes a spiritual idea. The very fact of our surrender, our humility, makes it spiritual. Things really begin to happen in our lives when we accept the idea that there is a power bigger and wiser than we are.” (ODAT, 20 March)
When I think I’m the centre of things, I see everything wrong. The size of things, the significance of things, is a function of whether they are proximal or distal to me.
When I know God is the centre of things, I see things (more) right (= less wrong).
Humility is about seeing myself as I am, in the place I really am, at the time I really am, in the context I am really in.
