True faith, a simple life, a helping hand- the three things prized most in Heaven.
Frederick BuechnerJesus is apt to come, into the very midst of life at its most real and inescapable moments. Not in a blaze of unearthly light, not in the midst of a sermon, not in the throes of some kind of religious daydream, but...at supper time, or walking along a road...He never approached from on high, but always in the midst, in the midst of people, in the midst of real life and the questions that real life asks.
Frederick BuechnerIt’s less the words they say than those they leave unsaid that split old friends apart.
