What to read while in the NICU


"It has seemed to me sometimes as though the Lord breathes on this poor gray ember of Creation and it turns to radiance-for a moment or a year or the span of a life. And then it sinks back into itself again, and to look at it no one would know it had anything to do with fire, or light...the Lord is more constant and far more extravagant than it seems to imply. Wherever you turn your eyes the world can shine like transfiguration. You dont have to bring a thing to it except a willingness to see. Only, who could have the courage to see it?" -GILEAD by Marilynne Robinson
