If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one.

We must pray to Jesus to give us that tenderness of the Eucharist.

Prayer is as necessary as the air, as the blood in our bodies, as anything to keep us alive-to keep us alive to the grace of God.

Even when the urgent is good, the good can keep you from your best, keep you from your unique contribution, if you let it.

The dying, the cripple, the mental, the unwanted, the unloved-- they are Jesus in disguise.

Do you really know the living Jesus - not from books but from being with Him in your heart? Have you heard the loving words He speaks to you?... The devil may try to use the hurts of life, and sometimes our own mistakes - to make you feel it is impossible that Jesus really loves you, is really cleaving to you. This is a danger for all of us. And so sad, because it is completely the opposite of what Jesus is really wanting, waiting to tell you. Not only that He loves you, but even more - He longs for you.

We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.
