Trust that it is worth scratching on the wall
that God is love and life because,
all appearances to the contrary notwithstanding,
it may just be true.
Trust that if God is anywhere, God is here,
which means there is no telling
where God may turn up next --
around what sudden bend of the path
if you happen to have your eyes and ears open,
your wits about you,
in what odd small moments,
almost too foolish to tell.
Frederick Buechner, New York Times, 2000
