God turns toward the very places from which humans turn away.

There remains an experience of incomparable value.

I need the Christ that is in you, and you need the Christ that is in me.

Christian brotherhood is not an ideal which we must realize; it is rather a reality created by God in Christ in which we may participate.

It is infinitely easier to suffer in obedience to a human command than to accept suffering as free, responsible men.

Only the believer obeys — obedience follows faith, the way good fruit comes from a good tree. Only the obedient believe.

But the Christian also knows that he not only cannot and dare not be anxious, but that there is no need for him to be so. Neither anxiety now work can secure his daily bread, for bread is the gift of the Father.
