A Christian is one who points at Christ and says, 'I can't prove a thing, but there's something about his eyes and his voice. There's something about the way he carries his head, his hands, the way he carries his cross-the way he carries me.'

Faith is homesickness. Faith is a lump in the throat. Faith is less a position on than a movement toward, less a sure thing than a hunch. Faith is waiting.

Your calling is where your own greatest joy intersects with the needs of the world.

Listen. Your life is happening. You are happening. Think back on your journey. The music of your life.

If you have never known the power of God's love, then maybe it is because you have never asked to know it - I mean really asked, expecting an answer.
