1 " Believe me, you have too many practices already. What is needed is rather a progressive inner simplification. Too many people identify spiritual prowess with being perpetually busy heaping meditation upon meditation, prayer upon prayer, reading upon reading instead of learning from the simple souls the great secret of knowing how, from time to time, to hold yourself back a little in peace and silence, attentive before God.5 "
― Leonard Sweet , Jesus Speaks: Learning to Recognize and Respond to the Lord's Voice
2 " Worship is what you do when you’ve heard Jesus speak. A worship life is what you live when you walk with Jesus. "
3 " For I do not seek to understand in order to believe, but I believe in order to understand. For I believe that “Unless I believe, I shall not understand.” —ANSELM OF CANTERBURY1 "
4 " There is within you a yearning for the divine that nothing else can satisfy. "
5 " The more we are the Presence of Christ for others, the more present we are for Christ to speak to us. "
6 " In sum, if Jesus isn’t surprising you, you’ve probably stopped growing spiritually. "
