Good things happen sometimes around tables. Bread is broken, wine shared out. Sometimes a stranger from outside the circle, perhaps observing the care of those at table, or overhearing their conversation, is emboldened to step into the circle for a moment; perhaps to kneel at someone's feet to wash them with tears, perhaps at others just to offer thanks for listening, for giving hope.
This is the miracle of grace; that just as at Pentecost, those outside heard of the Spirit being at work, and were moved in response.
The wind blows where it wills, and God's will is done! Thank you, Susan, for sharing this breath of fresh air.
