Faith considers that its precariousness and its finiteness are but the womb in which it abides, moving toward the plenitude and fullness of the eternity which it desires and believes in and which revelation opens to it.

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

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!

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

Lord, give me the heart of a child, and the awesome courage to live it out as an adult.

Faith brings into our lives such freedom, such love, such peace, and such joy that there are no words in any language that can explain it. You have to have it in order to know it. You have to experience it in order to understand it. Faith liberates. It liberates love and hope. If I am free to love and free to hope, what more do I want of life?

Listen to God's speech in his wondrous, terrible, gentle, loving, all-embracing silence.
