The fruits of your labors may be reaped two generations from now. Trust, even when you don't see the results.

The Lord is coming, always coming. When you have ears to hear and eyes to see, you will recognize him at any moment of your life. Life is Advent; life is recognizing the coming of the Lord

Solitude is the place of purification and transformation, the place of the great struggle and the great encounter.

Once we deeply trust that we ourselves are precious in God's eyes, we are able to recognize the preciousness of others and their unique places in God's heart.

Active waiting means present fully to the moment, in the conviction that something is happening where you are and that you want to be present to it.

If you meet God in solitude, you discover the God you meet is the God who embraces all people.

Our inclination is to show our Lord only what we feel comfortable with. But the more we dare to reveal our whole trembling self to him, the more we will be able to sense that his love, which is perfect love, casts out all our fears.
