Quote of the Week- A Christian and a Feminist

by - Sunday, May 22, 2016


Feeling inspired by Anne Lamott today- she writes on being a Christian and a Feminist at once, which makes perfect sense to me. 

“I think joy and sweetness and affection are a spiritual path. We're here to know God, to love and serve God, and to be blown away by the beauty and miracle of nature. You just have to get rid of so much baggage to be light enough to dance, to sing, to play. You don't have time to carry grudges; you don't have time to cling to the need to be right.” 
― Anne Lamott

“I liked those ladies! They were helpers, and they danced.' These are the words I want on my gravestone: that I was a helper, and that I danced.”

“You can tell if people are following Jesus, because they are feeding the poor, sharing their wealth, and trying to get everyone medical insurance.” 
― Anne Lamott

“Peace is joy at rest. Joy is peace on its feet.” 
― Anne Lamott

“I was reminded of the Four Immutable Laws of the Spirit: Whoever is present are the right people. Whenever it begins is the right time. Whatever happens is the only thing that could have happened. And when it's over, it's over.”
