If you have ever loved someone you could not protect, then you understand Jesus’ lament. All you can do is open your arms. You cannot make someone walk into them. Meanwhile, this is the most vulnerable posture in the world—wings, spread, breast exposed—but if you mean what you say, this is how you stand. (Barbara Brown Taylor)
