“I remained convinced that it was my job to be Jesus to others, so much so that I missed many chances to let others be Jesus to me-to teach me, heal me, to sit with me, to break bread with me, to listen to me, to weep with me, to call me to repentance, to love me.”

“Forcing you to stay where you have no desire to be... it'll corrode you, make you compromise yourself until you are nothing but a cutout of regrets. You'll only be thinking about the choices you were denied. That's the reason I'm helping you. Let this be the last time you compromise yourself.”

“She thought about how, in a movie, someone might take her hand and say, You're a woman now, and how untrue that would be.”

“Before Jesus fed us with the bread and the wine, the body and the blood, Jesus himself needed to be fed, by a woman. He needed a woman to say: ‘This is my body, given for you.”

“...I stumbled upon a poem by Daniel Ladinsky drawn from the words of that eccentric saint:
I think God might be a little prejudiced.
For once He asked me to join Him on a walk
through this world,
and we gazed into every heart on this earth,
and I noticed He lingered a bit longer
before any face that was
weeping,
and before any eyes that were
laughing.
And sometimes when we passed
a soul in worship,
God too would kneel
down.
I have come to learn: God
adores His
creation.
...Still, I think, deep in their hearts, most people want to believe that they are somehow worthy of love and belonging, that their worst day of suffering or their best day of wholeheartedness is not better than they deserve. I think most people yearn for a God who not merely tolerates but also adores God's creation. I think most people still long for a God who kneels down.”
