A miracle is when the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. A miracle is when one plus one equals a thousand.

Life is grace. Sleep is forgiveness. The night absolves. Darkness wipes the slate clean, not spotless to be sure, but clean enough for another day's chalking.

Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery it is. In the boredom and pain of it, no less than in the excitement and gladness: touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it, because in the last analysis all moments are key moments, and life itself is grace.

The grace of God means something like: Here is your life. You might never have been, but you are because the party wouldn't have been complete without you.

The Faces of Jesus

Laugh till you weep. Weep till there’s nothing left but to laugh at your weeping. In the end it’s all one.
