“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

“If work really were such a good thing, then the rich would surely have found a way to keep it for themselves. HAITIAN PROVERB”
― Leonard Sweet, The Well-Played Life: Why Pleasing God Doesn't Have to Be Such Hard Work

“It’s an amazing thing that God wants to use your faith and my faith in order to perform the great and mighty acts of love that can transform all of humanity!”
― Rasmus Rudy, Love. Period.: Loving Those Who Are Not Like You

“Jesus goes on before to Jerusalem and to the cross, and they are filled with fear and amazement at the road he calls them to follow.”
