You know, I think I have mentioned the "hidden man of the heart" quite a few times on this forum.
I refer to it at other times as being the anawim, or living the Nazareth life.
I didn't pull that thought out of thin air.
It is referenced plainly or obliquely numerous times in Sacred Scripture.
It is why, in the end, all that is hidden will be revealed.
It is in the innermost of our being that Our Lord and His Heavenly Father "come to take their abode in us."
And to anyone who calls upon the name of Jesus, that one will be saved.
All this isn't news to me, a Catholic---though it is always the Good News.
Thank You, Lord.
