The Lord often has his prophets climb mountains to converse with Him. I always wondered why He did that, and now I know the answer: when we are on high, we can see everything else as small. Our glory and sadness lose their importance. Whatever we conquered or lost remains there below. From the heights of the mountain, you see how large the world is, and how wide its horizons.
Paulo CoelhoWe all, at some point, grow old and acquire other qualities, and these can always be turned to good advantage.
Paulo CoelhoThe Lord heareth the prayers of those who ask to put aside hatred. But he is deaf to those who would flee from love.
