Love God, love your neighbors, and do stuff!
We determine how much influence we'll have, when we decide how available we'll be.
We don't really make friends, they make us.
But the kind of love that God created and demonstrated is a costly one because it involves sacrifice and presence. It's a love that operates more like a sign language than being spoken outright.
Love one another. We don't need more instructions; we need more examples.
You don't want to pick a fight with just the guy at the deli, [you want to] pick a fight somewhere in the world and just run towards it. Run because the fight is going to go on without you if you miss it.
