Every Christian would agree that a man's spiritual health is exactly proportional to his love for God.

Virtue - even attempted virtue - brings light; indulgence brings fog.

We may give our human loves the unconditional allegiance which we owe only to God. They they become gods: then they become demons. Then they will destroy us, and also destroy themselves. For natural loves that are allowed to become gods do not remain loves. They are still called so, but can become in fact complicated forms of hatred.

Any patch of sunlight in a wood will show you something about the sun which you could never get from reading books on astronomy. These pure and spontaneous pleasures are ‘patches of Godlight’ in the woods of our experience.

If Christianity is only one more bit of good advice, then Christianity is of no importance.

God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons that we could learn in no other way.

You Too? I thought I was the only one.
