Description

The next chapter reveals in practice what Julian has often preached in her words: that some mysteries take much longer to unravel than others, and that some mysteries are never cracked open this side of heaven. She shows in her decades of wondering about these visions that the daily hard work is to carry these mysteries and wonderings with us, to continue contemplating them patiently, never knowing whether they’ll be the sort that can be opened to us or not. What a thing to be patient about!

This is inspired by the fiftieth chapter of Julian of Norwich's long text, Revelations of Divine Love.
