The best written words are not only read but wrestled with.
The best books are those we forget we are reading.
Our favorite movies are the ones in which we imagine ourselves playing a role.
The best conversations are those that cause us to forget time is passing.
Our favorite songs aren’t the most musically sophisticated, but are the songs that tell our story.
There is a reason a speaker, a novelist, or a musician seems to know us so well.
They found a way to express the common theme of life, the longing of every heart, and what runs through our minds most often.
To love, to be loved, and to find who we are, in spite of who we’ve become.
Eternity has been imbedded in our hearts.
A desire to be known is ingrained in us.
A childlike wonder lives in our minds.
And most important of all…love Himself walked among us, inspiring our best, suffering our worst, steadfast in the notion that you and I are worth it.
Now we can make our way home.
