Dallas Willard
“Great faith, like great strength in general, is revealed by the ease of its workings. Most of what we think we see as the struggle OF faith is really the struggle to act as IF we had faith when in fact we do not.”
Dallas Willard, Hearing God: Developing a Conversational Relationship with God

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

Wendell Berry
“Christ did not descend from the cross except into the grave. And why not otherwise? Wouldn’t it have put fine comical expressions on the faces of the scribes and chief priests and the soldiers if at that moment He had come down in power and glory? Why didn’t He do it? Why hasn’t He done it at any one of a thousand good times between then and now?
I knew the answer. I knew it a long time before I could admit it, for all the suffering of the world is in it. He didn’t, He hasn’t, because from the moment He did, He would be the absolute tyrant of the world and we would be His slaves. Even those who hated Him and hated one another and hated their own souls would have to believe in Him then. From that moment the possibility that we might be bound to Him and He to us and us to one another by love forever would be ended.
And so, I thought, He must forebear to reveal His power and glory by presenting Himself as Himself, and must be present only in the ordinary miracle of the existence of His creatures. Those who wish to see Him must see Him in the poor, the hungry, the hurt, the wordless creatures, the groaning and travailing beautiful world.”
Wendell Berry, Jayber Crow

Wendell Berry
“When I rise up
let me rise up joyful
like a bird.

When I fall
let me fall without regret
like a leaf.”
Wendell Berry, The Mad Farmer Poems

Leonard Sweet
“flowers, or our feet from dancing. If you don’t meet God along the way, you’ll never meet God at the destination. That’s the dynamic tension.”
Leonard Sweet, 11: Indispensable Relationships You Can't Be Without
