Surprised By God – Christine Valters Paintner

“Conversion for me means to always allow myself to be surprised by God. It invites me to a sense of wonder and awe and recognizing that God’s imagination is far wider than my own.”
–Christine Valters Paintner, PhD, Monk in the World: An Online, Self-Study Retreat
Where do you feel your imagination restricted, and how can you allow yourself to be surprised by God?
When one realizes (experiences) the spark of life in each one of us ‘is’ God… (the idea of) imagination, and any other-such musing, becomes irrelevant…. unnecessary.
