Brennan Manning on Being Accepted
The Ragamuffin Gospel (Questar Publishers, 1993), 25.
And Grace calls out: you are not just a disillusioned old man who may
die soon, a middle-aged woman stuck in a job and desperately wanting to
get out, a young person feeling the fire in the belly begin to grow
cold. You may be insecure, inadequate, mistaken, or potbellied. Death,
panic, depression, and disillusionment may be near you. But you are not
just that. You are accepted. Never confuse your perception of yourself
with the mystery that you really are accepted.
