Awesome ending/quote from an amazing book by rob bell... Good reminder for us:
"...life is messy. Gut wrenching. Risky. Things don't always turn out well. Sometimes they don't turn out at all. Sometimes everything falls apart and we wonder if there's any point to any of it. We're tempted to shut ourselves off, fortify the walls around our hearts, and forge ahead, promising ourselves that we will never again open ourselves up.
But I have to believe that we can recover from anything. I have to believe that god can put anything - anyone - back together. I have to believe that the god jesus invites us to trust is as good as he says he is.
Loving.
Forgiving.
Merciful.
Full of grace."
