Today's gift
Nov. 25th, 2010 10:25 amfrom Abraham Heschel, Man is Not Alone:
Faith is not the clinging to a shrine but an endless pilgrimage of the heart. Audacious longing, burning songs, daring thoughts, an impulse overwhelming the heart, usurping the mind -- these are all a drive towards serving Him who rings our hearts like a bell. It is as if He were waiting to enter our empty, perishing lives.
May your day be filled with audacious longing and daring thoughts. May your heart ring like a bell.
