It is a gift when someone within our congregation or circle of friends shares part of the their journey of faith and awareness. It is even more so when someone brings the insights and especially the excitement of spiritual growth. Jean taught us of the differences between the old and new understandings of the cosmos, illuminated with quotes from poetic and enlightened authors, illustrated with pictures from the Hubble telescope. And that would be enough. But the greatest gift was the reporting from her own life.
Would Jean claim to be spoken to by ‘the still-speaking God’? Probably not. She’s too humble about her religious history to make such a claim. (Perhaps in that in a lesson for many of us.) But her words bore witness to being led in spirit by Spirit to greater intimacy with our Creator.
We couldn’t have asked for more.
