Faith is fudamentally a kind of folly.

We need to be poor! Let us live an ordinary life, but, beloved, let us live it with a passionate love for God. Become a mystery. Stretch one hand out to God, the other to your neighbour. Be cruciform. … Christ’s cross will be our revolution and it will be a revolution of love!

What you do matters — but not much. What you are matters tremendously.

Every meal should be prepared with love and eaten in peace, because its purpose is to strengthen us for the service of Love.

Faith walks simply, childlike, between the darkness of human life and the hope of what is to come.

With God, every moment is the moment of beginning again.
