Psalm 25:4
Make known to me your ways, Lord; teach me your paths.
Most people have no idea that their ego is running their lives until it is suggested to them. I had no idea until I started reading authors like Richard Rohr and Thomas Keating. The ego believes you are the center of the universe…which creates quite a lot of turmoil inside since you are clearly not! God is the center of all things. As we say in Catholic liturgy, “Through Him, with Him, and in Him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all glory and honor is yours, almighty Father, for ever and ever.” We are here only through our Loving Creator’s wishes. Jesus showed us the perfect model of dying to Himself (ego) and giving of Himself to others to make the world a more loving, merciful, forgiving and compassionate place (kingdom of God). Dear God, how do you want me to do the same?
