The human propensity to strive for wholeness, belovedness, and worth outside of ourselves is blasphemy. It goes against God’s creation and says that you, the pot, can make yourself better than the potter made you. You have been made whole. Nothing more can nor needs to be added. The potter knew what She was doing before She breathed Her first breath in you.
No probs, Dan! Thanks for asking. I've been using it for awhile now. I use different genders when I speak of God, who transcends gender: he, she, thou, etc. The Bible does this, but it's mostly in the masculine there. I guess I'm trying to help swing the pendulum the other direction. Communing with the Divine Feminine is an important part of my spiritual life and ministry.
Curious -- how long have you been using the female pronoun for God? And why the use thereof?
I'm not starting anything, like I said...just curious on your take.
Thank you.

Interestingly valuable insight, Jonas!
I like these 'Daily Pastorals' - they are good food for thought. Thank you for sharing them.
