You, who were made by Love, made for love-- be still and know and watch love come down.
God is patiently transfiguring all the notes of my life into the song of His Son.
Going ahead in the midst of the stressful circumstances and giving thanks in that moment - you can't simultaneously feel stress and gratitude at the same time. So as a parent, to go ahead and start to give thanks to God resets the whole family.
Isn't falling in love always the fullest life?
Eucharisteo—thanksgiving—always precedes the miracle.
When we lay the soil of our hard lives open to the rain of grace and let joy penetrate our cracked and dry places, let joy soak into our broken skin and deep crevices, life grows. How can this not be the best thing for the world? For us?
