A saint is not someone who is good but who experiences the goodness of God.

In every encounter we either give life or we drain it; there is no neutral exchange.

It is for the inconsistent, unsteady disciples whose cheese is falling off their cracker.

we unwittingly project onto God our own attitudes and feelings toward ourselves... But we cannot assume that He feels about us the way we feel about ourselves -- unless we love ourselves compassionately, intensely, and freely.

Trust is our gift back to God, and he finds it so enchanting that Jesus died for love of it

The spirituality of wonder knows the world is charged with grace, that while sin and war, disease and death are terribly real, God's loving presence and power in our midst are even more real.

You will trust God to the degree you know you are loved by Him.
