“God loves us the way we are, but too much to leave us that way.”
“We fail in the work of grace and love when there is too much of us and not enough of God.”
“Whenever we cannot love in the old, human way . . . God can give us the perfect way.”
“When we live in the love of God, we begin to pay attention to people the way God pays attention to us.”
“God calls us to life, to love, to healing. We merely have to find our way home.”
“I mean they don't seem able to love us just the way we are. They don't seem able to love us unless they can keep changing us a little bit. They love their reasons for loving us almost as much as they love us, and most of the time more.”
