Do you honestly believe God likes you, not just loves you because theologically God has to love you?

The love of Christ embraces all without exception. Fire of love, crazy over what You have made. Oh, divine Madman. (Prayer of Catherine Siena) Simply do the next thing in love. I have no sense of myself apart from you. Quia amasti me, fecisti me amabilem. (In loving me, you made me lovable.)

Reality, truth, and Jesus Christ are incredibly open-ended

That which is denied cannot be healed.

In my experience, self-hatred is the dominant malaise crippling Christians and stifling their growth in the Holy Spirit.

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

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