The heart clings to collected treasure. Stored-up possessions get between me and God. Where my treasure is, there is my trust, my security, my comfort, my God. Treasure means idolatry.

Your life as a Christian should make non believers question their disbelief in God.

The person who’s in love with their vision of community will destroy community. But the person who loves the people around them will create community everywhere they go.

The kitchen may not get cleaned, and I have to accept that. I do the important things.
