The Church exists for nothing else but to draw men into Christ.

if you do one good deed your reward usually is to be set to do another and harder and better one.

Whatever you do, He will make good of it. But not the good He had prepared for you if you had obeyed him.

If and when a horror turns up you will then be given Grace to help you. I don't think one is usually given it in advance. "Give us our daily bread" (not an annuity for life) applies to spiritual gifts too; the little daily support for the daily trial. Life has to be taken day by day and hour by hour.

War creates no absolutely new situation: it simply aggravates the permanent human situation so that we can no longer ignore it. Human life has always been lived on the edge of a precipice.
