Don’t Take Yourself Seriously

Good one this. And the text for it is from Eugene Peterson’s The Message, from the middle of Micah 6:

‘And don’t take yourself too seriously – take God seriously’

From a recent Richard Rohr retreat in Arizona: ‘You are made in the image of God, and therefore important to God. But in the grand scheme of things you are *not* important.

And Ninure, don’t take too seriously the comments about your posting original versus borrowed wisdom. Who here has had a purely original thought anyway?

And your eyesight makes it hard to read/correct stuff…

So keep the inspiration coming – whether from your or another’s experience!

And let us all pray for those who take Usenet comments about themselves seriously, when they emanate from others-with-unfinished-business, eh?
