Title
Holy Is the Day: Living in the Gift of the Present - Paperback
by Carolyn Weber (Author)
Life pulls us in many directions, sometimes even to the point of pulling our souls apart. We know rest and reflection are necessary for a healthy life--even Jesus took time to get away from the crowds, away from the demands of everyday life, to pray, to spend time with close friends, to sleep.
Carolyn Weber was emotionally and physically exhausted managing her career as a college professor, writing her first book (Surprised by Oxford), and parenting three children under the age of three when she was reminded by a friend that she, too, can rest. But all she could think was: who will do everything if I don't?
This set her on a journey to find the still, small space in each day.
In these pages Carolyn reflects on the eternal beauty that lurks within the present. Drawing from literature, history and everyday life, Holy Is the Day is a collection of spiritual reflections that trace the way God's ever-renewing grace is a gift of the present. Opening it, we find poignant stories of endurance, humility, compassion, remembrance and gratitude, as well a harrowing account of near-death experience.
Carolyn gives us new eyes to receive the precious gift of the present and give it away to others.
