Faith is stepping out into the unknown with nothing to guide us but a hand just beyond our grasp.

What makes you, in the deepest sense of the word, happy? That's what you should be doing, if the other part is also met - if it is something the world needs.

Whenever you find tears in your eyes, especially unexpected tears, it is well to pay the closest attention.

Even the saddest things can become, once we have made peace with them, a source of wisdom and strength.

Go where your best prayers take you.

If you are going to proclaim the Christian faith, speak about those dimensions of it which you['ve] had some experience with.

Prayers out of, very often, not the most religious part of me, but the most anxious part of me, the most desperately loving, fearing part of me.
