Christianity means community through Jesus Christ and in Jesus Christ. No Christian community is more or less than this.

God honors some with great suffering and grants them the grace of martyrdom, while other are not tempted beyond their strength. But in every case it is one cross.

The world upon whom grace is thrust as a bargain will grow tired of it.

We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God.....We must not.....assume that our schedule is our own to manage, but allow it to be arranged by God.

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

If you board the wrong train, it is no use running along the corridor in the other direction.

Nothing is so at odds with prayer as vanity.
