May we all grow in grace and peace and not neglect the silence that is printed in the center of our being. It will not fail us.

The greatest need of our time is to clean out the enormous mass of mental and emotional rubbish that clutters our minds

The secret of my full identity is hidden in Him. He alone can make me who I am, or rather who I will be when at last I fully begin to be. But unless I desire this identity and work to find it with Him and in Him, the work will never be done

The goal of fasting is inner unity.

Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance and order and rhythm and harmony.

Creation was given to people as a clean window through which the light of God could shine into people's souls. Sun and moon, night and day, rain, sea, the crops, the flowering tree, all these things were transparent. They spoke to people not of themselves but only of Him who made them. Nature was symbolic. But the progressive degradation of humans led them further and further from this truth. Nature became opaque.

Every breath we draw is a gift of God's love; every moment of existence is a grace.
