Though-provoking questions help me look honestly at the unknown and unresolved dimensions of my life now.
Jesus asked questions: What are you looking for? Who do you say I am? Will you also go away?
In different ways St Francis constantly encouraged his followers to ask themselves what fills, guides, and governs my heart now?
Here are some of the questions that have helped me live life at a deeper level:
Given that spiritual growth is intentional, requiring energy and choice - am I will to pay the price for this growth?
What do I need to surrender in trust to God at this time?
What is keeping me from falling in love with my life now?
At this stage in my life what is it too late for, too soon for, just the right time for?
The right questions are keys that allow the secret doors to swing open leading to a deeper self-knowlege, to clearer insight into what n0w is hindering or helping me on the path of discipleship.
