“Loving like that is simple and ordinary.  Maria and her friends are doing it every time they build something of quality for a customer.  I hope that I am doing it whenever I sit down to listen to one of my spiritual companions in spiritual direction and when I put together the worship aids and communications materials that my church needs.”

“This week what would happen if we choose not to honk at the person who cuts us off in traffic? What would it be like to give up a place in line to someone who might really need it? What if we gave a cup of hot coffee to a person begging on the street corner?”

“I would rather shelter with you, rootless
under the cold light of foreign stars,
wandering without a doorway of our own
than be parted from you, ever.”
