“Biblically, waiting is not just something we have to do until we get what we want. Waiting is part of the process of becoming what God wants us to be.”

“sometimes we do not realize how much we have to be grateful for until it is threatened.”

“God sees with utter clarity who we are. He is undeceived as to our warts and wickedness. But when God looks at us that is not all He sees. He also sees who we are intended to be, who we will one day become.”

“When we live in the love of God, we begin to pay attention to people the way God pays attention to us.”

“If we are serious about loving God, we must begin with people, all people. And especially we must learn to love those that the world generally discards.”

“As long as we have unsolved problems, unfulfilled desires, and a mustard seed of faith, we have all we need for a vibrant prayer life.”

“If you want to do the work of God, pay attention to people. Notice them. Especially the people nobody else notices.”
