art people batteries
Flattery has a short battery life, but reminding people they are amazing and precious and wanted and works of art can truly change their lives.
moving church better-person
I stay away from churches in which I feel like I have to pretend I'm a better person than I am. That sort of thing moves my faith backwards.
ignorance choices age
In the age of information, ignorance is a choice.
christian mystic
You cannot be a Christian without being a mystic
greatness thinking grieving
I kept imagining these people, just living their daily lives, and then having them suddenly ended in unjust tragedy. When we watch the news, we grieve all of this, but when we go to the movies, we want more of it. Somehow we realize that great stories are told in conflict, but we are unwilling to embrace the potential greatness of the story we are actually in. We think God is unjust, rather than a master storyteller.
giving grace charity
I love to give to charity, but I don't want to be charity. This is why I have so much trouble with grace.
beautiful real deep-water
The real voice is stiller and smaller and seems to know, without confusion, the difference between right and wrong and the subtle delineation between the beautiful and profane. It's not an agitated voice, but ever patient as though it approves a million false starts. The voice I am talking about is a deep water of calming wisdom.
lonely powerful loneliness
...the words alone, lonely, and loneliness are three of the most powerful words in the English language...those words say that we are human; they are like the words hunger and thirst. But they are not words about the body, they are words about the soul.
christian lonely pain
When I walked into the Christian section of a bookstore, the message was clear: Faith is something you do alone. Rick does not have much tolerance for people living alone. He's like Bill Clinton in that he feels everyone's pain. If Rick thinks somebody is lonely, he can't sleep at night. He wants us all to live with each other and play nice so he can get some rest. Tortured soul.
coffee space community
I listened so hard because it felt like, while she was telling me stories, she was massaging my soul, letting me know that I was not alone, that I will never have to be alone, that there are friends and family and churches and coffee shops. I was not going to be cast into space.
men two world
There are two types of men in this world--one is looking for a woman to make his life complete and the other is looking for a woman to join his complete life.
beautiful use prove
If I use the Bible to prove I am right, I have yet to be humbled by the beautiful truths of the Bible.
christian falling-in-love ideas
Being a Christian is more like falling in love than understanding a series of ideas.
bird today porridge
The early bird catches the worm. But I have never been one for worms. I am not sure what the late bird catches but I will feast with him today. Probably porridge.
