But the Lord remembers with love and does not let any small detail slip his memory, thus He does not need his name.
“After a silence, because he knew me well, he said, "Not all wounds are the bleeding kind.”
― Saint Odd

“If you love what you do and are willing to do what it takes, it's within your reach. And it'll be worth every minute you spend alone at night, thinking and thinking about what it is you want to design or build. It'll be worth it, I promise.”

“To love is to be vulnerable; and it is only in vulnerability and risk—not safety and security—that we overcome darkness.”

“It is more beautiful to trust in God. The beautiful in this world is all from his hand, declaring the perfection of taste; he is the author of all form; he clothes the lily, he colours the rose, he distils the dewdrop, he makes the music of nature; in a word, he organized us for this life, and imposed its conditions; and they are such guaranty to me that, trustful as a little child, I leave to him the organization of my Soul, and every arrangement for the life after death. I know he loves me.”
― Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ

“What it meant was learning to find God in the center of everything I did, and to see everything I did as what God wanted of me in that moment. Folding this load of laundry, driving this carpool, feeding this hungry, cranky child. These were the things God asked of me, and I would do them for him. I would give him my YES in each moment, as often as I could remember. In doing so, Jesus could act in me and I could grow in love for him. If I moved about the hours of my day with a trust that whatever I was doing was what God wanted me to be doing, I would have incredible peace.”
