The nature of the spiritual life is that we are certain in our uncertainty.

Never try to help God fulfill His word.

God never gives us discernment in order that we may criticize, but that we may intercede.

When we become advocates of a creed, something dies; we do not believe God, we only believe our belief about Him.

Prayer is the way the life of God is nourished.

Repentance always brings a person to the point of saying, “I have sinned.” The surest sign that God is at work in his life is when he says that and means it. Anything less is simply sorrow for having made foolish mistakes-a reflex action caused by self-disgust.

My unrestrained commitment of myself to God gives the Holy Spirit the opportunity to grant to me the holiness of Jesus Christ.
