To be a follower of the Crucified means, sooner or later, a personal encounter with the cross. And the cross always entails loss.

When you don't know what to do, do the thing in front of you.

Ordinary work, which is what most of us do, most of the time, is ordained by God every bit as much as is the extraordinary.

Waiting on God requires the willingness to bear uncertainty, to carry within oneself the unanswered question, lifting the heart to God about it whenever it intrudes upon one's thoughts.

The God who created, names, and numbers the stars in the heavens also numbers the hairs of my head..He pays attention to very big things and to very small ones. What matters to me matters to Him, and that changes my life.

One does not surrender a life in an instant. That which is lifelong can only be surrendered in a lifetime.
