That wink. It’s going to be the death of me. Here lies Tasha Pierson Toussaint, killed by the winks and unrequited love of a Frenchman.
“Does a house like this hold the memories and emotions in its walls? Can generations hear the echoes of them and be reminded of what should have been? What could have been?”

“I don't believe love and loss are limited by the boundaries of time,' Mama says. 'Scripture says that in heaven we'll know love in full, but loss we'll never know again.”

“Our harmonies anchor to one another the way they have since I was in grade school, each of us building in dynamic as the chorus swells into a blend so achingly right. I wish we could secure this same sense of unity outside of song. Because it's here, with my heart open and my voice lifted, that I feel the most connected to the family God gave me. No matter the differences between us, our frustrations, tensions offenses, or grief, when the four of us sing together, all the chaos in our world is forced to yield as we merge into one with the music.”

“Is grace given recklessly? No, it is not. It's given through sacrifice, rooted in the preciousness of love and life. It's given by surrendering to the One who laid down His life. It is a recognition that without the hope offered by the Savior who so willingly gives, who overcomes evil, we will live in fear. In the clutches of fear that suffocates and drains us. No. Grace is costly. But it is ours. And in receiving it, we find out weakness infused with His strength. His hope. His future. Live it.”
