Synopsis

A daily meditation for every day of the year, drawn from Brennan Manning's writings. In biblical terms, ragamuffins are 'the poor in spirit, those who were little in their own sight, those who were conscious of their nakedness and poverty before God and who thus cast themselves without reservation on his mercy.' Manning believes 'this is the spirit that God looks for in his people . . . It compounds a sense of personal powerlessness with unfailing confidence in the love of God and total surrender to the guidance of his will.
