I never add up. I only subtract from the total dying... . . . It is not the magnitude of our actions but the amount of love that is put into them that matters.
Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.
It is not the magnitude of our actions but the amount of love that is put into them that matters.
Duty is a very personal thing. It is what comes from knowing the need to take action and not just a need to urge others to do something.
The work we do is only our love for Jesus in action...If we pray the work...if we do it to Jesus, if we do it for Jesus, if we do it with Jesus...that's what makes us content.
In this world, there is no clarity. There is only love and action.
The point is to do something, however small, and show you care through your actions by giving your time.
Love cannot remain by itself - it has no meaning. Love has to be put into action and that action is service.
Prayer in action is love, love in action is service.

We can not do great things. We can only do little things with great love.
We cannot do great things on this Earth, only small things with great love.

People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway.
