If you do, you will find Him in front of you. Find Him this month. He's been there all along. Closer than your jugular vein. Look and you'll find. Walk and you'll arrive.

William J. ClintonOne morning, in cool blood, I slipped a noose about its neck and hung it to the limb of a tree; โ hung it with the tears streaming from my eyes, and with the bitterest remorse at my heart; โ hung it because I knew that it had loved me, and because I felt it had given me no reason of offence; โ hung it because I knew that in so doing I was committing a sin โ a deadly sin that would so jeopardize my immortal soul as to place it โ if such a thing were possible โ even beyond the reach of the infinite mercy of the Most Merciful and Most Terrible God.

Dan O'NeillO God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, the Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, so that I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, โRise up my love, my fair one, and come away.โ Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wandered so long.

She shut her eyes and whispered softly, "Oh, Lord God, have mercy on me and mend my broken wings!
