quotes about Lily Pads

last updated: November 28, 2023

My coming to faith did not start with a leap but rather a series of staggers from what seemed like one safe place to another.

Each prepared me for the next leaf on which I would land, and in this way I moved across the swamp of doubt and fear.
-- Anne Lamott
