“The people who creep us out aren’t obstacles to having faith; they’re opportunities to understand it.”

“No one expects us to love them flawlessly, but we can love them fearlessly, furiously, and unreasonably.”
― Bob Goff, Everybody, Always: Becoming Love in a World Full of Setbacks and Difficult People

“There is within you a lamb and a lion. Spiritual maturity is the ability to let lamb and lion lie down together.”
― Henri J.M. Nouwen, The Inner Voice of Love: A Journey Through Anguish to Freedom

“You keep listening to those who seem to reject you. But they never speak about you. They speak about their own limitations. They confess their poverty in the face of your needs and desires. They simply ask for your compassion. They do not say that you are bad, ugly, or despicable. They say only that you are asking for something they cannot give and that they need to get some distance from you to survive emotionally. The sadness is that you perceive their necessary withdrawal as a rejection of you instead of as a call to return home and discover there your true belovedness.”
― Henri J.M. Nouwen, The Inner Voice of Love: A Journey Through Anguish to Freedom
