My meditations last week centered on grace and one in particular stayed with me. Richard Rohr so eloquently said, “we must not be afraid of falling, failing, going “down.” It is at the bottom where we find grace; for like water, grace seeks the lowest place and there it pools up.”  What a wonderful and powerful image — pools of grace that settle in the lowest places of our lives. Knowing that we cannot escape the pain and challenge of this world, but that God has provided a lifeline in those places is so awesome. 
Prayer – Lord who provides our every need, may I seek grace when I find myself stifled in the darkness.

Peace +
