Compassion can never coexist with judgement because judgement creates the distance, the distinction, which prevents us from really being with the other.

The art of living is to enjoy what we can see and not complain about what remains in the dark. When we are able to take the next step with trust that we will have enough light for the step that follows, we can walk through life with joy and be surprised at how far we go.

Your life is not going to be easy, and it should not be easy. It ought to be hard. It ought to be radical; it ought to be restless; it ought to lead you to places you'd rather not go.

We are called to be fruitful - not successful, not productive, not accomplished. Success comes from strength, stress, and human effort. Fruitfulness comes from vulnerability and the admission of our own weakness.

I trust in you, Lord, but keep helping me in my moments of distrust and doubt.

Solitude is the furnace of transformation.

Peacemaking is a full-time vocation that includes each member of God's people.
