Small Graces
Small Graces: The Quiet Gifts of Everyday Life | Kent Nerburn
3 posts | 1 read
In twenty elegant pieces, writer, sculptor, and theologian Kent Nerburn celebrates the daily rituals that reveal our deeper truths. A companion piece to Kent Nerburn?s book Simple Truths, Small Graces is a journey into the sacred moments that illuminate our everyday lives. Through the exploration of simple acts, he reminds us to chart a course each day that nourishes the soul, honors the body, and engages the mind. Small Graces asks us to observe life?s quiet rhythms, the subtle shifts in perception and changes in light, the warm comfort of family voices; to feel the blessing of birdsong, the solitude of a falling leaf, the echo of footfall in snow-covered woods. By inviting us to recognize the hidden power of the ordinary, Small Graces reveals the mystical alchemy of the mundane made profound by the artistry of a well-lived life.

Life has been pretty tough lately. Lots of life events that have been hard. But I celebrated my 22nd Anniversary with my husband yesterday, and this book was in our B&B. I think I needed these words.

Because it‘s been a day of sharing, and because we are family, a non book holiday share. @Ambrosnazzy and her family are headed to NY for the holiday, so we‘ve already exchanged gifts with them. This is as special a present as I could get: my parents‘ copy of the Dear Abby grace my mom would use for Thanksgiving dinner. I‘ve had a copy, but somehow Alice ended up with the beat up original. And I‘m tearing up again. The little things count.

DivaDiane I love that. 7y

There were a few good bits in here but overall I felt as though it was long-winded rather than uplifting or providing ways to appreciate every day life
