Mindful Monday: You Are The Light
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this first Mindful Monday, Emilía shares one of her favorite quotes from Father Gregory Boyle and some of the questions this wisdom encourages us to ask ourselves.
“Jesus says, “You are the light of the world.” I like even more what Jesus doesn’t say. He does not say, “One day, if you are more perfect and try really hard, you’ll be light.” He doesn’t say “If you play by the rules, cross your T’s and dot your I’s, then maybe you’ll become light.” No. He says, straight out, “You are light.” It is the truth of who you are, waiting only for you to discover it. So, for God’s sake, don’t move. No need to contort yourself to be anything other than who you are.”
