God's grace embraces our questions as well as our answers

"Our questions and questing are crucial, because they can help us live into the answer of the furture. I am certain of one thing: the love that is God is at the heart of the answer, just as it is at the heart of each moment--past, present, and future. Faith today, tomorrow and always seeks to live, to love, and to be fully loved...It chooses to embrace hope and to be embraced by hope, even when overwhelmed by despair; it seeks life even in the face of death....For God's grace embraces our questions as well as our answers and our blindness as well as our vision, just as the sun shines steadily through the night, waiting to illumine the sky at dawn."  Jean M Blomquist,  Wrestling till Dawn

How blessed we are to be able to always pull God's love tightly around us, particularly in long dark nights when worries try to take over before the dawn.
