Parker J. Palmer

“There is no spiritual cheerleading here, no cheap grace. Instead, there is the hard-won knowledge that, while we cannot make joy, we can open ourselves to the God who suffers with us, offering us witness and ‘withness.’ The night is long, but if we keep on opening and offering ourselves through our tears, joy will come in the morning.”
— Parker J. Palmer, Author of On the Brink of Everything, A Hidden Wholeness, and Let Your Life Speak
