Description

From Every Moment Holy by Douglas McKelvey.

“We praise you, O Lord, for our limits! 

limits you have given us for

our good and for your glory.” 

The subtitle of Blessed Are the Rest of Us is “How Limits and Longing Make Us Whole.” I love that word “limits.” Limits speaks to more than weakness, more than failure, more than the ache in us for justice. Our limits in the presence of the divine is part of the core of who we are. Limits, as the prayer says, are for our good.
