There is a crack... in everything. That's how the light gets in. [View all]

[guillaumeb]

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in.

Leonard Cohen.

And that crack, that human imperfection, has been expressed in the Bible as original sin.

There is no perfection in humanity, but there is hope, and there is struggle. Thus the metaphor of the crack in everything.



But there is also hope, the hope that the light will enter into the imperfect vessel.
