Tone of voice can be effective
If our spirit's calm and meek;
Let us watch our words and actions,
Always careful how we speak.

A saint does not mean never to sin. It means to start again with humility and joy after each fall.

Autumn Trees

Ask me not to worry. They, like, Jesus, suggest trust rather than worry. So often in autumn I want to go lean my head against a tree and ask what it feels like to lose so much, to be so empty, so detached...and then simply to stand and wait for Go...

only two things of us; Love for [God] and love for our neighbor...
We cannot be sure if we are loving God...but we can know quite well if we are loving our neighbor.

God's gift, first of all, to each of us. And then a gift we give to others, a gift that, in the giving, brings to the giver unexpected and undeniable blessing.

Can describe God, excatly, but we know when we have God moments...They are moments of recognition when we know what is true, realize what is real, and experience what is good. God moments are rare glimpes into eternity.

Faith Comes and Goes

It rises and falls like the tides of an invisible ocean. If it is presumptuous to think that faith will stay with you forever, it is just as presumptuous to think that unbelief will.
