Silver Linings: Spirtuality in Life
Religion & Spirituality:Spirituality
In his book The Song of the Bird, Anthony de Mello relates the story of the tiger and the disabled fox. Some people have the view of spirituality as mostly sitting and waiting on God. The problem is that if God only acted directly, why would I need others?
It’s my experience that most often the way God provides for me is through other people who have shared their love, generosity, and support with me. God has used “the tigers” in my life to bless me time and time again.
If God tells me to follow the example of the tiger, then I need to get on with life, to LIVE life day by day. I need to be alert to the needs of others – to have the eye of the tiger. I need to be willing to open myself up to other people, to be willing to receive from them, which is an act of radical trust in God and the humanity that God chooses to work through.
Silver Linings can inspire you towards the achievement of your dreams, to grow, expand, and meet the challenges of your daily life.
