Life is so urgent it necessitates living slow.

The frame of a soul was never made for fame. The frame of a soul was made to serve.

God is always good and we are always loved... even when what He gives may appear ugly.

This day is not a sieve, losing time. With each passing minute, each passing year, there's this deepening awareness that I am filling, gaining time. We stand on the brink of eternity.

The message of Christmas is not that we can make peace. Or that we can make love, make light, make gifts, or make this world save itself. The message of Christmas is that this world’s a mess and we can never save ourselves from ourselves and we need a Messiah.

Be radical about grace and relentless about truth and resolute about holiness.

God is patiently transfiguring all the notes of my life into the song of His Son.
