Word from Grace Street: Life Imitates Art
Posted by Wallace+
Earlier in the week, while on retreat, I came upon a salt marsh in the bend of a sunlit river; and out among the tall, wavy cordgrass sat a lone, squat boulder, roughly the size of a Volkswagen beetle.
It seemed like one of those occasions where, as they say, life imitates art. (So much so that I smiled as I stood there taking in the scene -- I may even have chuckled out loud.) It was as though the scene were perfectly designed to send a message, to ask a question: What sits waiting, plain as day, for you to see, in your own life?

Open our eyes, dear Lord, and give us the courage to see what you would have us see: in the world, yes, but, first, in our own lives.
