Feeling helpless

It is good to feel helpless every moment, seeing
yourself helpless in success, just as in failure. For
above your capacity there is a greater Capacity,
and your will is subject to that greater Will in
every case. You are not divided into two halves,
now capable, now helpless. You are always helpless,
only sometimes remembering, sometimes for-
getting. When you remember, then the heart of
that moment becomes visible, and the way opens
up before you.
