- Synopsis
- "This is not a book of theology. But I hope it is a spiritual book. I hope it helps you celebrate God's love for you and all the people in your days and years. This is not a book about ideologies, but about people. I hope these people will bless you as they have me. If you were standing right next to me, our shoulders touching, and you saw and heard everything and everyone along with me, you probably would not recognize your experience in my words when you read them. I don't set before you right or wrong words. I merely offer the glimpses God has offered me of grace, forgiveness, laughter, and all the rich blessings of life. They are glimpses gained during ordinary days, while in the midst of doing the mundane things I do. Please feel free to use these reflections in any way you like for yourself or for others. Go ahead and retell these stories. Adopt them. Feel free to tear them to shreds. They are for you. But even better, why don't you start looking more closely at your own world. There are miracles and ordinary moments to celebrate, grace and joy to share, silly folk and saints to relish. Your own stories, once they are set down in front of you, may astound you or at least humble you and make you pause and think and perhaps (surprise) say a little prayer. Who knows? Perhaps yours could be the second volume of a long series of stories about bumping into God. Or maybe they will become a treasure just for you, your pearl of great price."
