Wendell Berry
“To love anything good, at any cost, is a bargain.”
Wendell Berry, Jayber Crow

Roy T. Bennett
“Focus on your strengths, not your weaknesses.
Focus on your character, not your reputation.
Focus on your blessings, not your misfortunes.”
Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

Ann Voskamp
“Maybe grieving over plans changed is part of the plan to change us.”
Ann Voskamp, The Broken Way: A Daring Path into the Abundant Life

Matthew Henry
“Be careful if you make a women cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man’s ribs. Not from his feet to be walked on, not from his head to be superior, but from his side to be equal, under the arm to be protected, and next to the heart to be loved.”
Matthew Henry

Ann Voskamp
“Humbly let go. Let go of trying to do, let go of trying to control, let go of my own way, let go of my own fears. Let God blow His wind, His trials, oxygen for joy's fire. Leave the hand open and be. Be at peace. Bend the knee and be small and let God give what God chooses to give because He only gives love and whisper a surprised thanks. This is the fuel for joy's flame. Fullness of joy is discovered only in the emptying of will. And I can empty. I can empty because counting His graces has awakened me to how He cherishes me, holds me, passionately values me. I can empty because I am full of His love. I can trust.”
Ann Voskamp, One Thousand Gifts: A Dare to Live Fully Right Where You Are
