    Episode 6:  Truth Isn’t Fragile: Trusting the Questions That Won’t Leave You Alone Prayer  O Sacred Mystery,
 the space between answers, 
the quiet voice beneath the shouting ones, the love that holds us when belief escapes us, help us to trust the questions,
 to welcome the doubt,
 to walk the road even when it winds and loops back on itself.
 Remind us— that when we doubt or question, it doesn’t mean we’re lost.   It means we’re finding our way.   MANTRA Your questions are not a threat. They are part of your path. EMAIL Embersofgracepodcast@gmail.com
