Faith is the last resort when everything else has failed.

It’s the absurd hope that insists on believing in the possibility of a way forward even when there is no hope.

Our small faith, nurtured into a larger life, gives life even as we and the ones we love are passing away. I don’t understand it – somedays I find it pretty thin gruel. But it’s what we have, and it has been enough to keep moving forward toward a deeper relationship with God.
