We must learn to regard people less in light of what they do or omit to do, and more in the light of what they suffer.

We pray for the big things and forget to give thanks for the ordinary, small (and yet really not small) gifts.

If Jesus Christ is not true God, how could he help us? If he is not true man, how could he help us?

The entire day receives order and discipline when it acquires unity. This unity must be sought and found in morning prayer. The morning prayer determines the day.

Help must come from the outside, and it has come and comes daily and answers in the Word of Jesus Christ.

The celebration of Advent is possible only to those who are troubled in soul, who know themselves to be poor and imperfect, and who look forward to something greater to come.

Do not try to make the Bible relevant. Its relevance is axiomatic.
