The Gentle Way

When Hardship Becomes Hallowed


Listen Later

Can you find the semblance of good in all things?

Can you see, looking back, how all things have worked together for your good?

How the broken kernels of wheat were pounded and mixed and shaped into bread?

How the farewell of sea tide now reveals the treasures of sea glass and sea shell?

How the deepening darkness brings moon glow and lamplight, stillness and cricket song?

How the fragment of torn cloak can be repurposed into a pieced-together quilt of remembrance?

Truly, every time you cross the threshold of the hard, you are on your way to finding the holy.
