Where true inner freedom is, there is God. And where God is, there we want to be.

To forgive another from the heart is an act of liberation. We set that person free from the negative bonds that exist between us. As long as we do not forgive we pull them with us, or worse, as a heavy load. The great temptation is to cling in anger to our enemies & then define ourselves as being offended & wounded by them. Forgiveness, therefore, liberates not only the other but also ourselves. It is the way to the freedom of the children of God.

Spiritual maturity is not knowing what to do with your whole life, but just knowing what to do next.

Living a spiritual life requires a change of heart, a conversion. Such a conversion may be marked by a sudden inner change, or it can take place through a long, quiet process of transformation. But it always involves an inner experience of oneness.

I feel the problems I have are meant to purify me.

The church is not an institution forcing us to follow rules but a community inviting us to still our hunger and thirst at its table.

Writing is not just a job. It helps me to pray. It's a way of being.
