Your calling my name is My reply. Your longing for Me is My message to you.

I want a heart which is split, part by part, because of the pain of separation from God, so that I might explain my longing and complaint to it.

Love is the house of God and you are living in that house.

Do you pay regular visits to yourself? Start now.

Like a sculptor, if necessary, carve a friend out of stone. Realize that your inner sight is blind and try to see a treasure in everyone.

Run from what's comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious. I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now on I'll be mad.

Don't run away from grief, o’ soul/ Look for the remedy inside the pain/ because the rose came from the thorn/ and the ruby came from a stone.
