Small Steps
Description
A collection of blessings, poetry, and micro essays to serve as a companion for readers as they navigate the journey of life by putting one foot in front of the other.
From the co-author of The Beauty of Motherhood comes a powerful book of blessings meant to meet us in our daily lives, in all of the challenges and joys, struggles and triumphs. Encouraging words can be offered and received to get us through life's journey-whether that's a personal or professional predicament, or the overwhelm of being connected twenty-four/seven. Sometimes we might need encouragement to endure a long commute, or to face the load of dishes in the sink. Or maybe we need words of wisdom when we feel like our faith is waning, or we are facing an existential crisis. We might also appreciate blessings when life is good and we want to express our gratitude and joy.
In all of life's circumstances, large and small, sacred and silly, blessings are meaningful words that meet real people in their messy day-to-day lives, and Kimberly Knowle-Zeller offers readers grit and grace to face the challenges and embrace the journey ahead.
