“Flood our souls with your spirit and life…
so completely…
that our lives may only be a reflection of yours.
Shine through us.
Show us how to seek you.
We were made to see you.”

“Awaken the divine presence…
which sleeps in each man, each woman.
You say…
“Christ said this.
Christ said that.”
What do you say?
And what you say,
does it come from god within?
Answer that which is of god,
in every woman, every man.
Know each other in that love
that never changes.”

“Man is in revolt against god.
The prophet Hosea saw
in the breakdown of his marriage
the spiritual infidelity of his people.
In that broken marriage,
we see the pattern of our world.
We wish to live inside the safety of the laws.
We fear to choose.
Jesus insists on choice.
The one thing he condemns utterly
is avoiding the choice.
To choose is to commit yourself,
and to commit yourself
is to run the risk,
is to run the risk of failure,
the risk of sin,
the risk of betrayal.
But Jesus can deal with all of those.
Forgiveness, he never denies us.
The man who makes a mistake
can repent.
But the man who hesitates,
who does nothing,
Who buries his talent in the earth,
with him,
he can do nothing.”

“There is a love…
that is like a stream
that goes dry
when rain no longer feeds it.
But there is a love…
that is like a spring
coming up from the earth.
The first is human love,
the second is divine love,
and has its source above.
The husband is to love his wife
as Christ loved the church,
and give his life for her.
He does not find her lovely,
he makes her lovely.”

“It’s very hard to be the one
who loves less,
the one who’s stronger.
You have to struggle with yourself.
You have to struggle with your own strength.”

“My god,
What a cruel war.
I find two women inside me.
One…
full of love for you.
The other…
pulls me down
towards the earth.”
