Tish Harrison Warren
“But unless we make space for grief, we cannot know the depths of the love of God, the healing God wrings from pain, the way grieving yields wisdom, comfort, even joy.
If we do not make time for grief, it will not simply disappear. Grief is stubborn. It will make itself heard or we will die trying to silence it. If we don't face it directly it comes out sideways, in ways that aren't always recognizable as grief: explosive anger, uncontrollable anxiety, compulsive shallowness, brooding, bitterness, unchecked addiction. Grief is a ghost that can't be put to rest until its purpose has been fulfilled.”
Tish Harrison Warren, Prayer in the Night: For Those Who Work or Watch or Weep

Tish Harrison Warren
“As we weep over the brokenness and futility of work, and watch for God to restore all things, we also work, with whatever limited gifts, influence, and capacity God has given us, for the renewal of work itself and of systems of labor and commerce in our world.”
Tish Harrison Warren, Prayer in the Night: For Those Who Work or Watch or Weep

Tish Harrison Warren
“There is eternal brilliance. It is not quite enough to resolve our questions or tie anything up in a nice metaphysical bow, but sometimes it is enough to get us through the next hour. And in enduring mystery, we need just enough light to take one more step.”
Tish Harrison Warren, Prayer in the Night: For Those Who Work or Watch or Weep

“Just as our pupils dilate to let in more light, prayer adjusts our eyes to see God in the darkness.”
Tish Harrison Warren, Prayer in the Night: For Those Who Work or Watch or Weep

Fredrik Backman
“When you're a child you long to be an adult and decide everything for yourself, but when you're an adult you realize that's the worst part of it.”
Fredrik Backman, Anxious People
