Everything that God created is potentially holy, and our task as humans is to find that holiness in seemingly unholy situations. When we can do this, we will have learned to nurture our souls.

. . .We are here to finish God's labors. . .so that we could be His partners in completing the work of creation.

Seek something outside your nine-to-five job as an additional source of fulfillment and as a way to feel the joy of helping others.

If you concentrate on finding whatever is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul

Is there an answer to the question of why bad things happen to good people?...The response would be…to forgive the world for not being perfect, to forgive God for not making a better world, to reach out to the people around us, and to go on living despite it all…no longer asking why something happened, but asking how we will respond, what we intend to do now that it has happened.

God, who neither causes nor prevents tragedies, helps by inspiring people to help.

History is written by winners, so most history books are about people who win.
