We need more light about each other. Light creates understanding, understanding creates love, love creates patience, and patience creates unity.
You may think there is a lot wrong with you, but there is also a lot right with you.
God never hurries. There are no deadlines against which he must work. Only to know this is to quiet our spirits and relax our nerves.
Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy. That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody's business. What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy.
Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery it is. In the boredom and pain of it, no less than in the excitement and gladness: touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it, because in the last analysis all moments are key moments, and life itself is grace.
The ache for home lives in all of us. The safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned.
The reason why many are still troubled, still seeking, still making little forward progress is because they haven’t yet come to the end of themselves. We’re still trying to give orders, and interfering with God’s work within us.
Give me the Love that leads the way The Faith that nothing can dismay The Hope no disappointments tire The Passion that’ll burn like fire Let me not sink to be a clod Make me Thy fuel, Flame of God.
Sometimes it’s the little things that count most.
I am not what I ought to be, I am not what I want to be, I am not what I hope to be in another world; but still I am not what I once used to be, and by the grace of God I am what I am.
I slept and I dreamed that life is all joy. I woke and I saw that life is all service. I served and I saw that service is joy.
We live by faith and not by sight.
If you have a dream, don’t just sit there. Gather courage to believe that you can succeed and leave no stone unturned to make it a reality.
Wherever you are, be all there! Live to the hilt every situation you believe to be the will of God.
You cannot expect to live a positive life if you hang with negative people.
Faith is the gaze of a soul upon a saving God.
Don’t get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.
It is not in doing what you like, but in liking what you do that is the secret of happiness.
You cannot love a fellow creature fully till you love God.
Sometimes you have to travel a long way to find what is near.
