In our society, it appears that rules give us a more specific idea of the things that we want to break so that we can break them more efficiently.

Humanity is capable of unimaginable good. However, in the light of those who perpetrate evil, such good seems unimaginable. Therefore, maybe it’s time that we break ourselves free to ‘imagine,’ so that we can break our world free from those who perpetrate evil.

Sometimes what is said to be a gift may appear more of a curse only because the greatest gifts of all are the gifts that have enough disruptive force to break us out of everything that’s breaking us. And God loves us far too much not to give us exactly those kinds of gifts.
