Peace is achieved when our conscience rests in the fact that we’ve engaged in ‘right’ living, verses believing that living is a ‘right.

If we’re missing life it’s probably because we’re expecting it to reveal itself to us, rather than realizing that life is revealed by us looking for it.

We can fill our lives with ‘stuff,’ but as we do we’re concurrently filling our lives with the obligation to maintain that ‘stuff.

We tend to deny our humanity because in accepting the fullness of it, we would need to confess how little we’ve done with it.

The art of living is to rise above lesser things so that we can truly enjoy great things. And the message of Christmas is the greatest of all things.

When will I realize that without God my world is draped in shadows between which there is not a single ray of light? And when will I recognize that with God, my world is deluged in light between which there is not a single thread of darkness?

In too many instances we have settled for a world of our own shaping that is shaping up to be in terrible shape.

To take this one shot at life and live it with God is to take this one shot and have it reverberate across and around my world as if it were a million shots and more.
