"I’m only just beginning to see that my personal pursuits are not as important as sitting with God in the mess of life. And preparing room for God’s work through me."
Your essay spoke right to my heart, today! Especially: "I’m only just beginning to see that my personal pursuits are not as important as sitting with God in the mess of life. And preparing room for God’s work through me."
Also, I see we have "The Book of Doors" in common... I loved that one! Thanks for the music recs. And that reel from The Holderness family!!!!! I just about died.
Thanks for these recommendations. I loved the Raven series — read them years ago. And I checked out Faith and Art — and am looking forward to it.
Also: I’m forty-seven too. And gosh, it’s bleh. But maybe it’s also wisdom and grace and self-understanding.
Anyway, peace to you this new year. Tina
Thank you, Tina! I’m glad to hear I’m not alone in feeling that 47 is bleh! And I agree, I hope it’s because of all the wisdom we’re gaining. Ha!

Thank you, Sarah! And I love that we keep having books and such in common!
