This is a wonderfully written piece. The metaphor brings to life the most basic and yet often elusive necessary understandings in the spiritual life, it is in our weakness we encounter God.
As a still aching Church Wound of rejection was bumped against and this morning and tears sprang anew, this was also a balm for me. An answered prayer of “What do I do with this?” Unexpected Spiritual Direction came swiftly. 🙏🏻

Thank you, Nicholas. It is strange paradox but the truth of power and weakness echoes across so many domains of the given world.

Sarah, I'm glad this post was of use to that Holy Breath that offers life even in the ashes.
A wonderful meditation- absolutely true. I may steal this for my sermon Sunday. Thank you, brother.
Thank you, Clyde. It would be an honor if my words find their way to your congregation.
Such a beautiful and timely reminder of the true nature of power… thank you. This piece was a balm for my soul this morning. God bless.
Thank you, Joe. A morning balm is the best I can hope for my words.
