“When God's justice falls, we are offended because we think God owes perpetual mercy. We must not take His grace for granted. We must never lose our capacity to be amazed by grace”

“what we charish is not important,what we take for granted is.”

“The simple process of focusing on things that are normally taken for granted is a powerful source of creativity.”

“Reality is what we take to be true.What we take to be true is what we believe.What we believe is based upon our perceptions.What we perceive depends upon what we look for.What we look for depends upon what we think.What we think depends upon what we perceive.What we perceive determines what we believe.What we believe determines what we take to be true.What we take to be true is our reality.”

“To take a people who were traveling apace the broadway to hell, and to be able to turn them, and set their face to God. . . . It is what we must strive for.”
