Genuine renunciation just happens

Only the radical poverty of helplessness allows us to be fully aligned with the “will of God”. And who can ever say what the “will of God” is until we are fully synchronised with it. This will entail renouncing even our capacity to see God’s and our will as distinct. We must then drop into the cloud of forgetting everything we once complacently saw as our letting-go. Genuine renunciation just happens; it falls away when the time is right.
