If our love of God does not directly influence, and even change, how we engage in the issues of our time on this earth, I wonder what good religion is.

We find it hard to love imperfect things so we imagine God is just as small as we are. If we expect or need things to be perfect or to our liking ( including ourselves) we have created a certain path for a very unhappy life.

It’s the freedom of the children of God. Such people can connect with everybody. They don’t feel the need to eliminate anybody.

A person who can laugh and go with life does not demand to be in control, which is why the most controlling people may be sarcastic but lack an authentic sense of humor.

If you do not transform your pain, you will always transmit it.

When you get your,'Who am I?', question right, all of your,'What should I do?' questions tend to take care of themselves

Much of what is called Christianity has more to do with disguising the ego behind the screen of religion and culture than any real movement toward a God beyond the small self, and a new self in God.
