A Light So Lovely: The Spiritual Legacy of Madeleine l'Engle, Author of a Wrinkle in Time by Sarah Arthur

4.0

I’ve come back to Christianity, feeling my way around, trying to figure out God’s purpose in my life now. There have been feelings of something missing and I’ve been fitting pieces back together that have been lost over the years. I’m doing this on my own terms, reading books that call to me, reading the Bible daily, studying Scripture, writing journal entries, paying attention. This book made me clearly understand how controversial faith in Christ can be, how personal it should be if we’re to have a meaningful relationship. Madeleine struggled with Christianity as often as she was comforted by her faith, but that, to me, is beautiful. Life is a struggle quite often. We wrestle with so many competing ideas, philosophies, beliefs, but when we catch glimpses of grace there is joy and glimmers of understanding or aha moments shine through to fill our heart, soul, mind.
