"It was a Christmas as unique as any other.
For every year the mystery unfolds itself anew.
And late in life,
I came to see that faith, like hope, is a rope and anchor in a shifting world.
Faith cannot be questioned, only lived.
And if I could not grasp it then,
I felt its heartbeat,
which was love."
~Call the Midwife
Drink your wine.
Laugh with your gut.
Burden your moments with thankfulness.
Be as empty as you can be with that clock winds down.
Spend your life.
And if time is a river,
may you leave a wake.
~N.D. Wilson
Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
Where Charity and Love are, God is there.
Encourage one another,
Donna
Merry Christmas dear Donna. I read N.D. Wilson's "100 Cupboards" series and loved it. Wonderful choices for quotes, and I could look at that photo a dozen times and just want to see it again.
