Acknowledging what you don’t know is the dawning of wisdom.
I always like to look on the optimistic side of life, but I am realistic enough to know that life is a complex matter.
Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work.
Prayer is the opening of the heart to God as to a friend. Not that it is necessary in order to make known to God what we are, but in order to enable us to receive Him. Prayer does not bring God down to us, but brings us up to Him.
There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about.
