Journey through Creatureliness

Engaging with the concept of creatureliness highlights modern man's struggle with dependence and limitation. The narrative emphasizes that contemporary society often rejects the notion that we are created beings, viewing dependency on a higher power as a form of weakness. This refusal to acknowledge our nature leads to a superficial understanding of existence, pushing individuals toward self-creation, as seen in philosophies like Marxism and Nietzschean thought. Recognizing our creatureliness is crucial, as it fosters gratitude and opens the door to authentic prayer, which cannot thrive in a worldview that dismisses the divine and our dependence on it.
