time is the most valuable thing that we have, because it is the most irrevocable.
Dietrich BonhoefferCostly grace is the gospel which must be sought again and again, the gift which must be asked for, the door at which a man must knock.
Dietrich BonhoefferWho can really be faithful in great things if he has not learned to be faithful in the things of daily life?
Dietrich BonhoefferSometimes we just need a firm kick in the pants. An unsmiling expectation that if we mean all these wonderful things we talk about and sing about, then letโs see something to prove it.
Dietrich BonhoefferAs brother stands by brother in distress, binding up his wounds and soothing his pain, so let us show our love towards our enemy. There is no deeper distress to be found in the world, no pain more bitter than our enemy's. Nowhere is service more necessary or more blessed than when we serve our enemies.
