Children of the burning heart

"To have found God and still to pursue Him is the soul's paradox of love,

scorned indeed by the too-easily-satisfied religionist,

but justified in happy experience by the children of the burning heart."

~A.W. Tozer

Should be celebrated in every home

"Christmas is built upon a beautiful and intentional paradox;

that the birth of the Homeless should be celebrated in every home."

~G.K. Chesterton

Only when I fall

Sterrennacht boven de Rhône, 1888


"Even the knowledge of my own fallibility cannot keep me from making mistakes.
Only when I fall do I get up again."
~Vincent van Gogh

For a little time

"For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, 

and then vanisheth away."

~James 4:14

Fairy tales are more than true

"Fairy tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist,

but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten."

~G.K. Chesterton

Suffering come upon us

"Drei Turme", Montafon, Oostenrijk, long time ago

"When pain and suffering come upon us,

we finally see not only that we are not in control of our lives

but that we never were."

~Timothy Keller

Our greatest love

"Only when our greatest Love is God, a love that we cannot lose even in death,
can we face all things with peace."
~Timothy Keller
Walking with God through Pain and Suffering

Without listening speaking no longer heals

"Somewhere we know that without silence words lose their meaning,
that without listening speaking no longer heals, and
that without distance closeness cannot cure."
~Henri Nouwen
