| Edith Schaeffer's book shares a shelf with a photo of my Mom |
Edith Schaeffer is probably my favorite author. I’ve read her book, “What Is a Family?” , more than once. She inspires and stirs me. For the most part, her thoughts seem to be filtered through a good measure of ‘grace’. I love this quote:
“Human beings are very unbalanced and prone to go off on tangents. In every area of life- with too great emphasis on one thing, leaving out another important thing altogether. None of us will ever be perfectly balanced in our spiritual lives, our intellectual lives, our emotional lives, our family lives, in relationships with other human beings, or in our business lives. BUT WE ARE CHALLENGED TO TRY, WITH THE HELP OF GOD. We are meant to live in the scriptures.”
