Experiencing the present purely is being emptied and hollow; you can catch grace as a man fills his cup under a waterfall.
These are our few live seasons. Let us live them as purely as we can, in the present.
You don’t run down the present, pursue it with baited hooks and nets. You wait for it, empty-handed, and you are filled.
I do so love this (and her) (and you)
Sweet Beth, thank you. This book is amazing.
Easily one of the best books I have ever read. Period.
I read this with a book club years ago and have pages and pages of quotes I collected, every one a gem.
Mmm, I have this on my shelf, and it’s well-read with notes in the margins. LOVE this book!
I LOVE this book! One of my all-time favs. 🙂
Agreed.
