I wish they would remember that the charge to Peter was "Feed my sheep", not "Try experiments on my rats", or even "Teach my performing dogs new tricks".

God has infinite attention, infinite leisure to spare for each one of us. He doesn't have to take us in the line. You're as much alone with Him as if you were the only thing He'd ever created.

I wonder do the gods know what it feels like to be a man.

There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'

Enough had been thought, and said, and felt, and imagined. It was about time that something should be done.

I have been feeling very much lately that cheerful insecurity is what our Lord asks of us.

To walk out of his will is to walk into nowhere.
