accountability

~ a solitary ~ Leave a comment

So, to be transparent, I believe in accountability. Each of us will one day need to give an account of our life and actions (or lack thereof). In this, I stand alone before God.

Sin is very much connected. Yes, I think there is such a thing. Without my sin, there is no Jesus as my Saviour. Sin is not a moral failure (doing the wrong thing) but a broken relationship that shows itself in my actions and desires. And the great news is that Jesus steps towards me and bridges the gap when I cannot move.

How outrages!?

kneeling

More transparency: I am pro-kneeling for prayer, especially the eucharistic prayer. The celebrant/priest is the only person who should stand during the eucharistic prayer. I think time spent on your knees is never wasted, so pray often on your knees. I love my kneeler/prie-deu for that very reason.

ad orientem

In an ongoing attempt to be more transparent and less censored ….

I am pro-‘ad orientem’. It is not a hill I am prepared to die on, but I think it is an option that is not discussed.
