By trying to grab fulfillment everywhere, we find it nowhere.

Waiting silently is the hardest thing of all.

Heaven is not here, it's There. If we were given all we wanted here, our hearts would settle for this world rather than the next. God is forever luring us up and away from this one, wooing us to Himself and His still invisible Kingdom, where we will certainly find what we so keenly long for

If your goal is purity of heart, be prepared to be thought very odd.

I seek the lessons God wants to teach me, and that means that I ask why.

Teach me to treat all that comes to me with peace of soul and with firm conviction that Your will governs all.

God will not protect you from anything that will make you more like Jesus.
