Donald,
I am very interested to read of the Lenten book - being for you a 'return' retreat of Dom Eugene Boylan, for you will have witnessed the 1961 visit and remember him. The extract on your Blog, of his "Confidence in God" speaks very directly..."what Christ meant to say to His Father is to be found in the message of His whole life"... "Our Lord's share in the partnership is specifically designed to fill in all our shortcomings".

My Lenten book came as a complete surprise. . . .friend knew of my interest in Thomas Merton, and he discovered a newly published book via Amazon. It is written by Christopher Pramuk, and is entitled "Sophia - The hidden Christ of Thomas Merton". It links so many strands of recent paths I have followed (which came from leads in Merton's writing), and explores so many of his journal entries. . . .
Thank you for all that you share with me.
William
