“This sitting at the feet of the Divine with an attentive and loving heart is a posture we all like to assume, whether we recognize it or not.  Our longing for it is deep and universal.  What so many people nowadays don’t know is that Mary is the lost sister.  She’s the lost and beautiful part within each of us, the contemplative that sits in divine presence with a fully attuned heart.”

-Sue Monk Kidd, When the Heart Waits
