Artist: Giotto di Bondone (1267-1337)Sojourners offered this quotation in one of their emails today:
I do not go to Mass to make myself "better." I go because, in the dimmest reaches of my scattered, angst-ridden mind, there is something that wants me to get down on my knees and, in spite of my own suffering and all the suffering around me, give thanks. I go because I am beginning to believe that heaven is not in some other world, but shot through the broken world in which we live.
- Heather King, from her essay "Heaven and Earth"
