Guideposts Quote

Lord, I’m probably not mature enough to ride a motorcycle. Or vote. Or marry. Or make assumptions about neighbors from an unfamiliar block. I am a petulant child. In the words of Saint Paul, it’s time to put away my childish things, like reasonless rage, and enjoy the grace of a random act of kindness. —Mark Collins
