| Introduction | To work out our own identity in God, which the Bible calls "working out our salvation," is a labor that requires sacrifice and anguish, risk and many tears. It demands close attention to reality at every moment, and great fidelity to God as He reveals Himself, obscurely, in the mystery of each new situation. We do not know clearly beforehand what the result of this work will be. The secret of my full indentity is hidden in Him. He alone can make me who I am, or rather who I will be when at last I fully begin to be. ~Thomas Merton |
