Greatest Shame

Greatest Shame

Well, Manguso might be right about sharing our greatest shame.

But I don’t think I am going to do that here.

I think regret is a thing better left for our nightly prayers.

You give it over to grace, and then you put it behind you.

Did you enjoy the exposition? 😉

You might as well start by confessing your greatest shame. Anything else would just be exposition.

-Sarah Manguso, 300 Arguments (Amazon)
