We must keep in mind that where the road is crooked, God makes it straight, and where our hearts are wounded, God makes us whole. As we open our hearts in purity and simplicity, admitting to God that we are completely powerless in the area of our problem, His illumination redeems us.

In that Holy Place where you tell Him everything and he understands; there are angels who stand in wait to hear his every command. How may they serve you and increase your joy?

We are more afraid of excellence than of failure.

I think you have to grieve the loss of youth before you can claim the joy on the other side of it.

Think of everything you've ever experienced that was painful; that's the meaning of Good Friday. Think of all the ways that love ultimately healed your heart; that's the meaning of Easter.

I deepen my experience of God through prayer, meditation, and forgiveness.

I think we all need to be looking to the better angels of our own selves. We don't need to be looking for great people so much as becoming great people.
