We are Pencils....

Small Things

We are all pencils in the hand of God.

Nobody

One of the greatest diseases is to be nobody to anybody.

Hunger

The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.

Love

I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I don't know
that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will
NOT ask, How many good things have you done in your life?,
rather he will ask, How much LOVE did you put into what you did?

If we want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To
keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.

The success of love is in the loving - it is not in the result of loving. Of
course it is natural in love to want the best for the other person, but
whether it turns out that way or not does not determine the value of
what we have done.

Judging

If you judge people, you have no time to love them.

Jesus

Each one of them is Jesus in disguise.

Actions

It is not the magnitude of our actions but the amount of love that is
put into them that matters.

Words

Words which do not give the light of Christ increase the darkness.

Kind Words

Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are
truly endless.

Prayer

Sweetest Lord, make me appreciative of the dignity of my high
vocation, and its many responsibilities. Never permit me to disgrace
it by giving way to coldness, unkindness, or impatience.

Silence

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness.
God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows
in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...
We need silence to be able to touch souls.

Smile

Peace begins with a smile.....
