Faithfulness requires the courage to risk everything on Jesus, the willingness to keep growing, and the readiness to risk failure throughout our lives.

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.

God is a kooky God who can scarcely bear to be without us.

All I have learned through trial and error is to stay alert and aware, especially God smiling @ our silliness.

The dominant characteristic of an authentic spiritual life is the gratitude that flows from trust

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

We are not cowed into timidity by death and life. Were we forced to rely on our own shabby resources we would be pitiful people in deed. But the awareness of Christ's present risenness persuades us that we are buoyed up and carried on by a life greater than our own.
