“Life is so complete that even when we are knocked on our backs, we have the best view of the stars.”

“When we get impatient because something is taking too long, we should remember that Life waits on us a thousand times more than we wait on Life.”

“From deep within, our spirits are calling for a new and greater global wholeness, global healing, and global opportunity -- the voice is ours, the time is now, and the resources are what we have.”

“May our effort, confidence and concern for others be the altar from which we pray for personal abundance.”

“Life wants each of us to live on the 'A Team' -      Wider, ever more intense Acceptance of good in our lives.      Wider, ever more intense Awareness of good in our lives.      Wider, ever more intense Action for good in our lives.www.upwardjoy.com”

“Yesterday is gone and tomorrow has not yet come; we must live each day as if it were our last so that when God calls us we already, and prepared, to die with a clean heart.”

“And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another? How do we persuade a woman not to have an abortion? As always, we must persuade her with love and we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts. Jesus gave even His life to love us. So, the mother who is thinking of abortion, should be helped to love, that is, to give until it hurts her plans, or her free time, to respect the life of her child. The father of that child, whoever he is, must also give until it hurts.”
