“Grace is not part of consciousness;
it is the amount of light in our souls,
not knowledge nor reason.” ~ Pope Francis

love is more thicker than forget

“love is more thicker than forget
more thinner than recall
more seldom than a wave is wet
more frequent than to fail

it is most mad and moonly
and less it shall unbe
than all the sea which only
is deeper than the sea

love is less always than to win
less never than alive
less bigger than the least begin
less littler than forgive

it is most sane and sunly
and more it cannot die
than all the sky which only
is higher than the sky” ~ e e cummings

A Sunday Thought

During times of struggle, it is easy to take a very insular view of the challenges that we face. We often forget that there is a connection between those difficulties and the times when life seemingly flows along effortlessly. This morning, I happened upon this quote and realized that it serves as a reminder of the value of our struggles:

“I write about the power of trying, because I want to be okay with failing. I write about generosity because I battle selfishness. I write about joy because I know sorrow. I write about faith because I almost lost mine, and I know what it is to be broken and in need of redemption. I write about gratitude because I am thankful – for all of it.” ~ Kristin Armstrong
