NAÏVE GRACE

Dear God, I don’t feel alone

since I found out about You.

Nora

The heart of Jesus loves us as we are

and not as we should be, beyond worthiness,

 beyond fidelity and infidelity;

He who loves us in the morning sun

 and the evening rain without caution,

 regret, boundary, limit, or breaking point.

Brennan Manning

WIDE – EYED LISTENING

A four year-old girl was over heard whispering

 into her newborn baby brother’s ear,

 “Baby,” she whispered,

 “tell me what God sounds like.

  I am starting to forget.”
