Author:
Mother Basilea, born Klara Schlink (October 21, 1904 in Darmstadt, Germany – March 21, 2001 in Darmstadt) was a German religious leader and writer. She was leader of the Evangelical Sisterhood of Mary, which she cofounded, from 1947 to 2001.
Basilea Schlink was a sister of Edmund Schlink, a professor in theology. Her father Wilhelm Schlink was a professor of mechanics. After finishing high school in Braunschweig and Darmstadt, she was educated (from 1923) at the Fröbelseminar in Kassel, from 1924 at the Inner missions girls' school in Berlin. In 1929 she became a teacher at the Mission House Malche in Bad Freienwalde (Oder) in German, psychology and church history. After matriculation in 1930 she studied psychology, art history and philosophy in Berlin and Hamburg. This study was completed by a religious-psychologic thesis about “Consciousness of Sin in adolescent girls and its significance for their battle of faith.”
Croatian Summary:
Bolest kao dugo vrijeme trpljenja želi nam pokazati kako nam nedostaje strpljivosti, kako smo još zahtjevni, osjetljivi i sebični, jer bolest nas često dovodi u stanje koje iznosi na vidjelo slaba, grešna mjesta našeg srca. Tada možda osjećamo kako nas rođaci, prijatelji ili oni koji nas njeguju ne razumiju u našoj nevolji, ne suosjećaju s nama i ne iskuzuju nam ljubav onako kako bismo to željeli. To izaziva u nama ogorčenost, pokazuje nam našu sebičnost i uči nas da molimo i borimo se za istinsku poniznost i skromnost, ne tražeći ništa od drugih. Pritom Isus radi na nama, kako bi nas preobrazio u svoju sliku.
Ova knjiga donosi ohrabrujuće tekstove, meditacije i molitve.
English Summary:
Illness, like a long time of suffering, wants to show us that we lack patience, how demanding, sensitive, and selfish we are, because illness often brings us to a state that brings out the weak, sinful places of our heart. This book brings encouraging texts, meditations and prayers.
