“...the goodness of God is the highest object of prayer and it reaches down to our lowest need.”
― Julian of Norwich, Revelations of Divine Love

“Grace transforms our failings full of dread into abundant, endless comfort … our failings full of shame into a noble, glorious rising … our dying full of sorrow into holy, blissful life. …. Just as our contrariness here on earth brings us pain, shame and sorrow, so grace brings us surpassing comfort, glory, and bliss in heaven … And that shall be a property of blessed love, that we shall know in God, which we might never have known without first experiencing woe.”
― Julian of Norwich, Revelations of Divine Love

“Whatever may be the tensions and the stresses of a particular day, there is always lurking close at hand the trailing beauty of forgotten joy or unremembered peace.”

“Grace saved my life; it can revolutionize yours.”
