“And what I began discovering is that every time I allowed myself to feel at a loss in the face of the pain I witnessed, every time I touched my own irrelevance, there was this energy of God that would emerge in our midst. All I had to do was say yes to it. The presence of God was there, always ready to pick up the broken pieces from the floor and re-assemble them into something good, into something wholesome. And when that happened, I realized that my skills were not useless. I just needed to first surrender them to God, so God could use them however God wished.”
–Adam Bucko, Let Your Heartbreak Be Your Guide: Lessons in Engaged Contemplation, p. 116-117
