Today my reaction to the texts makes me want to run away and hide!   Even “to suffer slightly what God suffers eternally.” Obviously I am immersed in self this morning.  The AA third step prayer asks relieve me of the bondage of self.”    Jesus 1932 message to two poor women on London – yes, 1932 – included these words, among also many calls for joy:   “Kill the self. …every blow to Self prepares the way for your true, eternal self.” (“God Calling,” by “two listeners” and edited by A J Russell.).

Susan, wow. Thanks.  Constance Fitzgerald

The treasure is at the beginning?   Does this refer to the conversion experience, with a powerful  surge  of joy and energy, that I had Almost 30 years ago?    I miss that but I understand why it’s gone
