Superficiality is the curse of our age. The doctrine of instant satisfaction is a primary spiritual problem.
Richard J. FosterThe truth of the matter is, we all come to prayer with a tangled mass of motives altruistic and selfish, merciful and hateful, loving and bitter. Frankly, this side of eternity we will never unravel the good from the bad, the pure from the impure. God is big enough to receive us with all our mixture.
Richard J. FosterIf we are silent when we should speak, we are not living the Discipline of silence. If we speak when we should be silent, we again miss the mark.
