One of the marks of maturity is the ability to disagree without becoming disagreeable

From the tiny birds of the air and from the fragile lilies of the field, we learn the same truth, which is so important for those who desire to live a life of simple faith: God takes care of His own. He knows our needs. He anticipates our crises. He is moved by our weaknesses. He stands ready to come to our rescue. And at just the right moment, He steps in and proves Himself as our faithful heavenly Father.

People who are close to God cultivate a personal intimacy with Him like a good gardener cultivates beautiful flowers.

Humility - the discipline of putting others ahead of self, the choice to value others above self - is, at its core, a matter of faith.

God's timing is always on time.

If our perfect Lord is gracious enough to take our worst, and ugliest, our most boring, our least successful, and forgive them, burying them in the depths of the sea, then it's high time we give each other a break.

Alleged 'impossibilities' are opportunities for our capacities to be stretched.
