Participate in this limitless love (Fr. Greg Boyle)


   See something.  Say something.  They’ll believe you.  The time for any of us to be returned to ourselves is now.  The ground beneath our feet is the Kingdom of God, the Pure Land.  It’s not around the corner, it is the corner.  Kinship is not a reward bestowed at the end.  It’s here, it’s now, it’s at hand and within our reach.  And this moment is the only one available to us…

   Now… is the day of salvation.  We see as God sees:  with amplitude, wideness, and mercy.  The only moment left to us to participate in this larger love, this limitless, all-accepting love, is in the present moment.

   Can you hear it?  The voice of the Beloved.

--Fr. Greg Boyle, Barking to the Choir, p.90
