“How much farther?” “The distance doesn’t matter. Just think about your next step.”
― Mark T. Sullivan, Beneath a Scarlet Sky

“The fact is, real beauty is found out there under the same sky as vulnerability. I’m not suggesting we can’t die out there—we can. But we will most certainly die if we stay inside forever. Given enough time in the artificial light, within our insulated walls, our fruit will dry up and our branches will wither. Tap water simply can’t compare with the feeling of rain on our faces. Hearing the wind is a paltry substitute for feeling it whip through our hair. Shut yourself in from the pain of exposure, and you’ll also miss the sunset, where orange turns to purple and restores the souls of weary mortals. When we overinsulate ourselves, we’re protecting ourselves right out of our callings.”

“it’s a shameful feeling to admit to another human being that you’ve been acting like a child. So here’s a bit of advice for you: While you are a child, live it up. You won’t get to act like that forever without making a fool out of yourself.”
― Craig Lancaster, Edward Unspooled

“Our part is to follow Jesus. He knows what He’s doing with you. No one’s loved more than you. No one’s a bigger priority than you. No one else is so high on His list of favorites that your contribution to the body of Christ is drowned out or diminished.”
