Musings on theology, faith, society and occasionally perfume...
About Me
- Pia
- I'm a woman with a deep interest in theology and healing, and how faith translates into our lives. I'm NOT a theologian, pastor, or psychologist--these are just thoughts and essays based on my own experiences and musings, and I hope you will join the discussion!

"Someday after we have mastered the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love. Then for the second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire." --Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Pia...so profound! Thanks for sharing this piece with us. Lord, let this message of humility soak in...
Glad you found it moving as well. Humility is a lot on my mind these days...it's a posture, isn't it...but amazing how it's a posture that really makes room for grace, joy and gratitude rather than fear, judgement and/or entitlement!
You know, that's one of the amazing things to me about this journey--it's so full of paradox. Lose your life to find it. Be humble in order to truly know what you are worth, and so find freedom and joy. It's strange and marvelous....
