Out of these ashes beauty will rise.

I know a lot less about God, but the things I know about God, I know a whole lot more, for sure.

Wherever we are, God's in that moment, God's speaking to us, and if we've just got our ears open and our antennas up, there's no lack of inspiration. He's not silent. We just have to be listening.

What God wants is to reveal himself more fully to us.

God really does have a plan for every child that He knits together, even when they look broken to the world outside, when their story is broken, when their hearts are broken, when their bodies are broken. God still knit this child together with a plan.

There is no greater love than this. There is no greater gift that can ever be given. To be willing to die, so another might live -- there is no greater lover than this.

God is God and I am not. I can only see a part of the picture He's painting.
