Quote
There are lesser paths that scour the landscape of my life, each begging me off to dead-end adventures touted as wondrous destinations of the most magnificent sort.

Quote
Is my faith so terribly pathetic that I have diminished God to the point that I doubt His ability to survive in the very world that He came to save? Indeed, I have done exactly that.

I have likewise come without anywhere to turn simply because, much like myself, everything around me lies broken beyond repair. And I cannot tell you how many times God has taken that which is broken and has used it to do what could never have done should any of that had been whole.

What further evidence do we need regarding our inability to save ourselves? For if we dare to take even the briefest look at the world around us, we’ll rather quickly see that we can’t even save ourselves from the evidence that we can’t save ourselves.
