Depart from Me || Pastor Brian Zahnd

"Every one of us is shadowed by an illusory person: a false self. This is the man that I want myself to be but who cannot exist, because God does not know anything about him. And to be unknown of God is altogether too much privacy. My false self is the one who wants to exist outside the reach of God’s will and God’s love—outside of reality and outside of life. And such a self cannot help but be an illusion." –Thomas Merton, New Seeds of Contemplation FIND US ON SOCIAL MEDIA Facebook:   / wordoflifechurch   Instagram:   / wordoflifechurch   YouTube:    / wolctv   PASTOR BRIAN ZAHND ON SOCIAL MEDIA Facebook:   / brianzahnd   Instagram:   / brianzahnd   Substack: https://brianzahnd.substack.com CONNECT WITH A PASTOR Do you need prayer?
