I really believe that what we finally want is to know God, as God has come to be known through Jesus. Knowledge is knowledge of the heart - the Spirit - I would say. It is the Spirit in us who reveals God.

God's Kingdom is a place of abundance where every generous act overflows its original bounds and becomes part of the unbounded grace of God at work in the world.

In solitude we realize that nothing human is alien to us.

What makes us human is not our mind but our heart, not our ability to think but our ability to love.

When you recognize the festive and the still moments as moments of prayer, then you gradually realize that to pray is to live.

The pain that comes from deep love makes your love more fruitful. It is like a plow that breaks the ground to allow the seed to take root.

In our own woundedness, we can become sources of life for others.
