“To be fair, I spend most days living inside my head--hoping that when I finally open my mouth or put pen to paper, what comes out will matter.”
― Called: My Journey to C. S. Lewis's House and Back Again

“I think that’s what we are all meant to do, all we can do, with the gifts we have been given, be they experiences or talents. Those gifts are waiting to be used to touch others’ lives, as we patiently listen for and obediently follow the direction to which God is calling us. Because that’s what you do with gifts, you give them away.”

“...I realized that any provisions we had did not ultimately come from me at all, but only from God. Sometimes we can't see that from where we're standing, but time and time again on this journey, God provided for us in ways that I cannot ignore, just as He had before we left.”

“I write to see the world. I do not quite know what I see, and I certainly don’t know what I think, until I’ve written it. So when I look out at the world, I find myself wanting to trace its contours with words. I write because, when I look out at the world...I want to write it. When I look out at the world, I want to help it; and somehow, I feel as though by writing, I just might.”

“Listen to the mustn'ts, child. Listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me... Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.”
