“a few words, held back cautiously, then spoken carefully is inspiration. A lesson hard learned, held deep within, then divulged in a whisper—this too is the sound of Spirit-breath.”
― Jack Levison, 40 Days with the Holy Spirit

“A GLUTTON IS ONE who raids the icebox for a cure for spiritual malnutrition.”
― Frederick Buechner, Listening to Your Life: Daily Meditations with Frederick Buechner – The Acclaimed Novelist-Preacher on Imagination

“We cultivate love when we allow our most vulnerable and powerful selves to be deeply seen and known, and when we honor the spiritual connection that grows from that offering with trust, respect, kindness and affection.

Love is not something we give or get; it is something that we nurture and grow, a connection that can only be cultivated between two people when it exists within each one of them – we can only love others as much as we love ourselves.

Shame, blame, disrespect, betrayal, and the withholding of affection damage the roots from which love grows. Love can only survive these injuries if they are acknowledged, healed and rare.”
― Brené Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection

“There can be no Spirit-inspired worship that is untruthful, no truthful worship that is void of Spirit.”
― Jack Levison, 40 Days with the Holy Spirit
