“The way to begin healing the wounds of the world is to treasure the Infant Christ in us; to be not the castle but the cradle of Christ; and, in rocking that cradle to the rhythm of love, to swing the whole world back into the beat of the Music of Eternal Life.”
“To forsake Christ for the world, is to leave treasure for a trifle, eternity for a moment, reality for a shadow.”
“The cradle rocks above an abyss, and common sense tells us that our existence is but a brief crack of light between two eternities of darkness.”
“Whoever had said that the hand rocked the cradle ruled the world must have has a Southern,born bred mother.”
“The cross of Christ makes demands of us. It will not allow us to love the world and love Christ. It will not permit half-hearted devotion. If Christ is to live in you, sin and selfishness must be put to death.”
“the world is the cradle and your trap.”
