“Secrets make us sick, I've heard. I made secrets out of my questions and doubts and sadness and grief because I didn't know how to simply sit with them. Even now, I fight against the urge to explain or pretend or ignore away the darkness. It's uncomfortable to lean into the pain, to seek God there in the darkness.” GodGriefDarknessSadnessSecrets Book:Out of Sorts: Making Peace with an Evolving Faith Source: Out of Sorts: Making Peace with an Evolving Faith
“I know now that the Spirit is trying to birth something in my life when I find myself craving silence and darkness, when I find myself editing my circle down to just the trusted few whom I know will midwife me through this birth. It's nothing to fear; it's the time of transition.” ChangeSilenceDarknessBirthTransition Book:Out of Sorts: Making Peace with an Evolving Faith Source: Out of Sorts: Making Peace with an Evolving Faith
