Transformative Suffering
“It seems to be the price of the death of the small self and the emergence of the True Self, when we finally come to terms with our true identity in God”
- Richard Rohr, OFM, The Sacred Wound
The painting was inspired by the quote from Friar Rohr's book. It was a moment of deep realisation when I saw that, indeed, my wounds are His wounds! And that it is with God’s grace that my hurts and disappointments are transformed into the sacred and sanctifying!
