“With the Eucharist, therefore, heaven comes down to earth, the tomorrow of God descends into the present and it is as if time remains embraced by divine eternity.”

“This is finally true: deep on the inside everyone is like a church, and the walls are adorned with festive frescoes. In earliest childhood, when this magnificence is still exposed, it is too dark inside to see the images, and then, while the hall is gradually reached by light, adolescent foolishness and its false longings and thirsting shame set in and cover up wall after wall. Some people advance far into and through life without suspecting the original magnificence underneath the sober poverty. But blessed is he [she] who senses, finds, and secretly recovers it. He [She] presents himself [herself] with a gift. And he [she] will return home to himself [herself].”

— Rainer Maria Rilke, from “On Childhood and Education,” The Poet’s Guide to Life: The Wisdom of Rilke, ed. and trans. Ulrich Baer (Modern Library, 2005) (via memoryslandscape)

God Is Not A Man: Julian of Norwich

Almost nothing is known about Julian of Norwich, a fourteenth-century woman mystic who lived in isolation in Norwich, England. All we know about her life is that she experienced visions, which she wrote about in her only written work, Revelations of Divine Love. The really earthshaking thing about this book, though, is that in Julian’s theology, God is not male. Instead, God contains and expresses all genders. These days, many liberal churches are moving towards gender-neutral or gender-inclusive language when they talk about God, but keep in mind that this work wasn’t written in the present day: Julian lived in a time when accepted Christian theology held that women were temptresses, were inferior to men, and held little or no authority when speaking about God. So, in a word…she was a badass.

In one of the Revelations, God tells Julian,

“It is I who am the strength and goodness of fatherhood; I who am the wisdom of motherhood; I who am light and grace and blessed love; I who am Trinity; I who am Unity; I who am the sovereign goodness of every living thing; I who enable you to love; I who enable you to long. It is I, the eternal satisfaction of every genuine desire.”

Jesus felt sad. Jesus felt loneliness, his very own brothers didn’t believe in him until after he was resurrected. He felt betrayed, one of his best friends chose money over him. He felt anger. He was tempted. He was spat on. Who could understand us better than him? There’s no one else to turn to with our problems or feelings, I assure you he knows how we feel.
