The Tragedy Of Life And

When We Accept Christ We Enter Into Three New Relationships: (1) We Enter Into A New Relationship With God. The Judge Becomes The Father; The Distant Becomes The Near; Strangeness Becomes Intimacy And Fear Becomes Love. (2) We Enter Into A New Relationship With Our Fellow Men. Hatred Becomes Love; Selfishness Becomes Service; And Bitterness Becomes Forgiveness. (3) We Enter Into A New Relationship With Ourselves. Weakness Becomes Strength; Frustration Becomes Achievement; And Tension Becomes Peace.

The Simple Fact Is That The World Is Too Busy To Give The Holy Spirit A Chance To Enter In.

The Only Victory Love Can Enjoy Is The Day When Its Offer Of Love Is Answered By The Return Of Love. The Only Possible Final Triumph Is A Universe Loved By God And In Love With God.

The Word Grace Emphasizes At One And The Same Time The Helpless Poverty Of Man And The Limitless Kindness Of God.

Love Always Involves Responsibility, And Love Always Involves Sacrifice. And We Do Not Really Love Christ Unless We Are Prepared To Face His Task And To Take Up His Cross.
