“I am still not good enough. I am still not whole enough. I am still not pure enough. I am still weakness and sharp edges and broken, but He is good and pure and whole, all that I strive for but am not. I wake up every morning and I sit in silence and I choose to believe. I may speak. I may not. I let Him wrap up all my broken in to His grace. He takes me imperfect. This is the great mystery I never knew.” GodInspirational QuotesReligionFaithJesusHealingChristianityGraceForgivenessInspirational QuoteMemoirLife QuoteBrokenness Book:Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith Source: Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith
“The God I serve is able to save us both. To give us the winning lottery ticket so all our money problems will go away. To mend our broken hearts. To bring us close to those we love. He is able. He is able. He is able. But even if He doesn’t, do not bow to bitterness. Do not fall down onto your broken pieces and let them cut you to ribbons. Even if He doesn’t do all that He is able to do, all that we wish He would do, He is good.” GodReligionSufferingFaithJesusLossChristianityStruggleGraceSeparationMemoirBereavementGrieve Book:Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith Source: Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith
“I want my heart to be the thin place. I don't want to board a plane to feel the kiss of heaven. I want to carry it with me wherever I go. I want my fragile, hurting heart, to recognize fleeting kairos, eternal moments as they pass. I want to be my own mountain and my own retreat.” InspirationalGodDivineTravelEternalMemoirRetreatKairosThin Place Book:Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith Source: Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith
