My favorite new blog in a long while. New to me, I mean. A couple tastes:
The Gaps in Us
. . . His fingers . . .
in between the ribs at odds in my chest.
The bones should feel stranger, I think,
as God lifts us up by the gaps in us.
Receptivity and Little Disasters
. . .
In my dream world, we wouldn’t need to wait for something bad to happen before we could speak to those around us. I won’t pray for trouble. But if disasters big and small are what make our hearts receptive to connection with others, I will use them to the fullest. Bring on the dirty diapers, dropped books, unexpected thunderstorms, and broken pencil woes. If our lives start to suck, at least we’ll have something to talk about.
Of course, we always had something to talk about.
But now you finally want to share with me. How were you to know you had me before hello?

I like recommendations. Maybe it's because I like thinking that word of mouth is still powerful, even in an era ruled by marketing experts.
