“We subsequently ignore critical questions like: What is wholeness? Who is whole? Who decides when we get there? Like a ship without a course or a compass, we venture out for the ultimate destination with only a trial-and-error strategy. We try this vitamin, that yoga or the other therapeutic treatment. We talk to each other to find out what someone else has tried and what route seems most promising. We hope, eventually, the wind and waves will point us on the perfect course. Unfortunately, this sea before us is immense and confusion abounds. We’re more likely to drift into a perfect storm than a safe harbor. What we need is a trustworthy captain and a reliable compass.”
This is from the book I am currently reading by Mark Foreman called Wholly Jesus
