both ends of the spectrum

It was one of those weekends: a burial of ashes long overdue, planning a funeral with one who is in palliative care, and a wedding. Today church seemed surreal, as all these emotions were churning inside. That's really the crux of faith - living in the chaos of life and bEing held together by something/someone outside of oneself. Yet the GRACE is that the someone outside of oneself is really deep within the depths of one's very being. Thanks be to God for the grace inside to be grace to others, especially when emotions are everywhere but calm.
