Grace (eventually) thoughts on faith

The world, the community, the family, the human heart: these are the beautiful and complicated arenas in which our lives unfold. Wherever you look, there's trouble and wonder, pain and beauty, restoration and darkness-sometimes all at once. Yet amid the confusion, if you look carefully, in nature or in the kitchen, in ordinariness or in mystery, beyond the emotional muck we all slog through, you'll find it eventually: a path, some light to see by, moments of insight, courage, or buoyancy. In other words, grace. Anne Lamott recounts the missteps, detours, and roadblocks in her walk to faith.

But no, it's clog and slog and scootch, on the floor, in silence, in the dark.""
