Perfect Timing

So I read this right after after I had talked to someone about being broken before God... it is wonderful.
Its from a book called "Hiding in Plain Sight" by Molly Wolf

"The warm, strong force of the Resurrection- God's powerfully, terrifyingly alive love breaking through and sinking into us, as the new year's warmth sinks into this thawing land and water. It swells up under our walls, breaking and tumbling them, as the earth's swell breaks and tumbles a stone wall. We are craked open, gently in thats what God knows we need, less gently perhaps if we're tougher nuts, because it is indeed "the crack in everything" that lets the Light get in.

And the, when we're broken and helpless as babies once again, we find ourselves being tenderly held and released into a new softness and gentleness and trust, where we can be free and loving once more, and truly, resiliently strong, no longer rigid. Paradoxically, the more we allow our walls to be broken, the more we find how little we really needed them. The more we die, the more alive we become. The more we trust, the less reason we have to be fearful."


Enjoy!
