I had a deep experience of God's love for me.

Jesus says, "Keep your heart on the kingdom first. Keep your heart on God's love. Keep focused on the fact that you are God's beloved daughter or son. That's the truth of who you are.

Prayer is the beginning and the end, the source and the fruit, the core and the content, the basis and the goal of all peacemaking.

The Christian leaders of the future have to be theologians, persons who know the heart of God and are trained - through prayer, study, and careful analysis - to manifest the divine event of God's saving work in the midst of the many seemingly random events of their time.

We just have to recognize life for what it is: a gift to be grateful for, not a property to cling to, hoard, or defend.

The beatitudes say, "Blessed are the poor". They don't say, "Blessed are those who care for the poor."

As a general remark, I would say we must move from the moral to the mystical life.
