The first step in faith is to stop thinking about God at the time of prayer.-

Jesus reveals a God who does not demand but who gives; who does not oppress but who raises up; who does not wound but who heals; who does not condemn but forgives.

Without fear I can acknowledge that the authentic Christian tension is not between life and death, but between life and life.

The Christian with depth is the person who has failed and who has learned to live with it.

Our culture says that ruthless competition is the key to success. Jesus says that ruthless compassion is the purpose of our journey.

The ancient spiritual tradition is that God gives himself fully to us in silence and solitude.

Hope your wildest hopes, dream your maddest dreams, imagine your most fantastic fantasies. Where your hopes and your dreams and your imagination leave off, the love of my Heavenly Father only begins.
