If I’m going to be frankly honest about my ignorance, the question I should be asking God about life is, “What are the questions I should be asking about life?

We must clean the lens of our hearts to see the state of our souls. However, too often the former is too dirty to even know that the latter exists.

I would like to say that I’m sacrificial. But am I sacrificial enough to acknowledge the fact that I’m not?

If we’re honest, what makes something impossible is not our fear. Rather, it is our indifference.

To ‘pretend’ is to say that I’m willing to waste the precious energy that it takes to pretend, and I’m unwilling to cultivate the bravery that it takes to be real. And I am at a complete loss to pretend that either of these aren’t true.

The problem is not that we don’t recognize the truth when we hear it. The problem is that we don’t want to recognize what the truth might mean for us if we hear it.
