Well, I think the main message is there is more to your story. There is more than what happens between the crib and the grave, and that is what I am really trying to speak to, this idea that all of life is this life and that there is nothing more than what we see and experience right here on this earth.

Though you see nothing, he is acting.

I believe ingratitude is the original sin. I believe if Adam and Eve had been grateful for the garden of Eden they had, they would not have been so focused on the one tree they didn't have.

It's nothing mystical, necessarily. It's nothing secretive. It's just what we do with our body we do with our soul.

If today were your last, would you do what you're doing? Or would you love more, give more, forgive more? Then do so! Forgive and give as if it were your last opportunity. Love like there's no tomorrow, and if tomorrow comes, love again.

I simply think God is greater than our weakness. In fact, I think it is our weakness that reveals how great God is.

We might question God's actions, decisions, or declarations. But we can never, ever question his zany, stunning, unquenchable affection.
