" 'The one thing we owe absolutely to God is never to be afraid of anything.' His unflinching trust in the love of God morphed into humble confidence that the grace for the next step in the dance of life was already there, given.
Without anxiety, Abba’s children move forward, knowing that the next and the next and the next steps will take care of themselves. Abba’s children don’t worry about tomorrow or even late this afternoon. …
God’s grace always precedes his call. . . . Living in the wisdom of tenderness is an unending adventure in trust and dependence."
- My beloved Brennan Manning in The Wisdom of Tenderness
