" Some people skip through life; some people are dragged through it

"I'm reading this book right now, Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller. It is Awesome!!! He happens to be an excellent writer (sweeeet use of metaphor and simile) who deals with very genuine questions about the pragmatics of faith. To blog all the clips I would like to would be a copyright infringement because of bulk...but here is a sampling where he describes his walk with God:

"I am early in my story, but I believe I will stretch out into eternity, and in heaven I will reflect upon these early days, these days when it seemed God was down a dirt road, walking toward me. Years ago He was a swinging speck in the distance; now He is close enough I can hear His singing. Soon I will see the lines on His face."
