the words find us
On 22, May 2013 | No Comments | In sharing | By Natalie
“i shall make all things well,and i will make all things well;and you will see yourself that everykind of thing will be well.”
Julian of Norwich,
a mysterious, female mystic
from a tumultuously mysterious time.
it has been said that when
Mother Julian was writing these words,
she was expressing her
deepest sense of spirituality and
beliefs about her Creator.
she authored,
Sixteen Revelations of Divine Love,
when she was only 30 years old.
this book is said to be the first
book written by an English woman.
words seem to find us.
and it’s remarkable how words,
said more than 600
years ago
still have the power to
jump off the page
and make me
catch my breath.
on a wednesday afternoon
in a random book
off the highest shelf
at one of my favorite city
haunts.
