Simplicity, then, is getting in touch with the divine center

In the same way that a small child cannot draw a bad picture so a child of God cannot offer a bad prayer.

In worship an increased power steals its way into the heart sanctuary, an increased compassion grows in the soul. To worship is to change.

May God give you - and me- the courage, the wisdom, the strength always to hold the kingdom of God as the number one priority of our lives. To do so is to live in simplicity.

Loneliness is inner emptiness. Solitude is inner fulfillment.

..the true test of spirituality [is] in the freedom to live among people compassionately....Prayer frees us to be controlled by God.

One reason we can hardly bear to remain silent is that it makes us feel so helpless. We are so accustomed to relying upon words to manage and control others. If we are silent, who will take control? God will take control, but we will never let him take control until we trust him. Silence is intimately related to trust.
