The Blessed "Divine Mistake"

 Bernadette Roberts

It is possible few people may be able to understand the mistake I am speaking of - namely, mistaking their experience of God to be God. For most of my life I'm not sure I would have understood even had I known. ...

But if I now see through the mistake of believing experiences of God - Divine Center and Being, Living Flame of Love and so much more - to be God, I also know this mistake to have been deliberately intended. God ordained this mistake so man would have this medium of learning and not go through life without the experiential knowledge and assurance of His true presence and love. Without question, it is better to have Truth mediated by self than not to experience or know God at all. So in the end, the unknown self is a ‘Divine Mistake’. 

Forcing the Fit

St Maximilian Kolbe 

In every situation think more about loving than about working. Don't offer excuses when you make a mistake. Don't cast the blame on others. Do not offend by sarcasm those who correct you.
