There is thing you can do but I can not and there is thing I can but you can not; so let us make something beautiful together
I have never found a problem with people from different religions praying together. What I have found is that people are just hungry for God, and be they Christian or Muslim we invite them to pray with us.
Suffering, if it is accepted together, borne together, is joy.
The family that prays together stays together, and if they stay together they will love one another as God has loved each one of them. And works of love are always works of peace.
Let us love one another as God loves each one of us. And where does this love begin? In our own home. How does it begin? By praying together.
There is a tremendous strength that is growing in the world through sharing together, praying together, suffering together, and working together.
Where does love begin? In our own homes. When does it begin? When we pray together. The family that prays together stays together.
Whatever religion we are, we must pray together.
Together we can do great things.
If faith is lacking, it is because there is too much selfishness, too much concern for personal gain. For faith to be true, it has to be generous and loving. Love and faith go together, they complete each other.
None of us, including me, ever do great things. But we can all do small things, with great love, and together we can do something wonderful.
People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway.
We, the unwilling,led by the unknowing,are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much,for so long,with so little,we are now qualified to do anything with nothing.
Much more is accomplished by a single word of the Our Father said, now and then, from our heart, than by the whole prayer repeated many times in haste and without attention.
