more words from Brennan Manning:
"When we are seized by the power of Great Affection, we are empowered with the courage to risk. The Spirit sets us free from our self-imposed limits and moves us out into uncharted waters. Our secure, well-regulated, and largely risk free lives are blown apart.
In the power of great affection, the impossible becomes possible. We are freed from the fears that lock us. We know we can't lose, because we have nothing to lose."
"It is more likely to make us feel foolish (if we are the least bit self-conscious) than to make us feel that at last we have arrived at Christian maturity...
Mature Christians are those who have failed and learned to live gracefully with their failure."
"Your failure is measured by your aspirations. Aspire not, and you cannot fail."
"The Word should force us to reassess the entire direction of our lives."
"On the last day, when we stand before the risen Christ, each one of us will be the sum of our choices."
