May you always live in a time of unrest.
--A Chinese Blessing

Moments of Transfiguration
Think about all of the God spots in your life-- books you've
read, stories you have heard, moments in prayer, certain people in
your life, a crisis time, a resurrection time. Think of people who
have so struck you with something of the Holy One that there was
a kind of scorching of the cornea of your soul with the face of
the Holy One. You're different because of it. You're transfigured
because of it.

--from the sermon "God-Spots"
by The Rev. Dr. Douglass M. Bailey
