“Those who respond to the call and agree to carry and love what God loves—which is both the good and the bad—and to pay the price for its reconciliation within themselves, these are the followers of Jesus Christ. They are the leaven, the salt, the remnant, the mustard seed that God uses to transform the world. The cross, then, is a very dramatic image of what it takes to be usable for God. It does not mean they are going to heaven and others are not; rather, it means they have entered into heaven much earlier and thus can see things now in a transcendent, whole, and healing way.”

“It’s in falling down that we learn almost everything that matters spiritually.”

“Only thoughts which come from walking have any value.”
― Nietzsche,

“Walking allows thoughts to connect more laterally with other reflections an impressions … There’s something about walking in green space that enables us to exist in the moment in a way nothing else does … The combination of movement and landscape affects our brain in extraordinary ways”
― Annabel Abbs, Windswept: Walking the Paths of Trailblazing Women
