Here I Am

God speaks to us through beauty. The more fragile or hidden the beautiful thing, the stronger the call to love.

If we fail to discern or respond, then we fail in our humanity. We humans were made for this: to receive and give the love of God. In so doing, we, ourselves, are rendered beautiful – for God speaks through us.

Although crippled by disease, I'm fully alive in love. I write about the terrible beauty and sacred wonder of life, while living with physical disability and severe dependency. A revert to the Catholic faith through atheism, I'm not afraid to ask life's big questions. I explore what it means to be fully human through my weekly blog and have written a book: It's Good to Be Here, published by Sophia Institute Press.
