"But how can the characters in a play guess the plot? We are not the playwright, we are not the producer, we are not even the audience. We are on the stage. To play well the scenes in which we are "on"concerns us much more than to guess about the scenes that follow it."
"It is when we notice the dirt that God is most present in us; it is the very sign of His presence."
"The human heart is not unchanging (nay, changes almost out of recognition in the twinkling of an eye)..."
"Here the whole world (stars, water, air,And field, and forest, as they wereReflected in a single mind)Like cast off clothes was left behindIn ashes, yet with hopes that she,Re-born from holy poverty,In lenten lands, hereafter mayResume them on her Easter Day."(Epitaph for Joy Davidman)"
"God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons that we could learn in no other way."
