To live outside of God's will puts us in danger; to live in his will makes us dangerous.

Love, no matter how you come at it, is a huge risk. It makes it easier for me to remember that God will never reject me because I am not good enough and that any community that has His heart will embrace me as I am. Jesus invites us into a community where imperfect people can find acceptance, love, forgiveness, and a new beginning.

When we dwell on the past, we tend to want to live there. When we dream of the future, we want to go there. Our dreams are where God paints a picture of a life waiting to be created.

Jesus did not have a value for prayer for prayer's sake. He had a value for the intimate communion between God and man.

The epicenter of creativity and imagination should be the Church, reflecting the character and glory of God.

Is it possible that the creative act is simply the materialization of the future- making the invisible, visible?

Faith is the determination to create with our lives what only our hearts can conceive.
