Those who say, don't know. Those who know, can't say. Such is the path of mysticism: a fine line of experienced intimacy with God and an inability to describe a knowing beyond words. Most often, we "fall into grace" by accident, when our desire for God can't be met by continuing to do what we've always done, and we've left the beaten path with no idea where we're going. But what if there were a third option, apart from quiet knowing or loud ignorance? What if you could walk with someone who knew the way? Put yourself in the feet of another and walk to His House. Come, discover yourself in the eyes of Love.

You would think, with all of the self-proclaimed leaders in this world, that leadership was something to be coveted, desired, obtained, or achieved. However, no one goes willingly into the crucible unless they love beyond themselves. In the crucible, the ego is exposed. In the crucible, God reveals the purpose of inadequacies. In the crucible, pressure and heat destroy that which isn't eternal and create something eternal out of what's left. Not everything survives the crucible, which is, after all the point. It's also the reason so many try to avoid it. They say one should never trust a knight in shining armor because that's a knight who hasn't seen battle. One should never trust a leader who hasn't been through the crucible because that person isn't leading you anywhere you want to go. The journey out starts by going in.
