O send out your light and your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling. Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy; and I will praise you with the harp, O God, my God. (Psalm 43: 3-4)

God comes to each of us in a different way. What is a warming and reassuring light to me may be frightful lightening to another.

With each of my clients I choose different words and ways. I try to adapt my speaking and doing to the unique character of each of my children.

God comes to me with subtle clues, poignant ironies, and fascinating word-play. God seduces me by drawing out my best self.

No doubt I am often frustrating to God. Presented with the best, I sometimes choose the worst. Much of the time I am simply not paying attention.

It is my experience that the light - a unique light for each of us - is always there, ready to be noticed, prepared to lead the way.
