Every person bears the divine image, and so when anyone is injured, the heart of God is wounded.
—John Calvin
Sunday Inspiration: Do Not Be Daunted
Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world’s grief. Do justly, now. Love mercy, now. Walk humbly, now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it.
—The Talmud

Since I’m not sure of the address to which to send my gratitude, I put it out there in everything I do.
—Michael J. Fox
Sunday Inspiration: More Light
Every positive thought we pass between us makes room for more light.
—John Lewis
Sunday Inspiration: Love and Truth
Do not accept anything as truth that lacks love, and do not accept anything as love which lacks truth. One without the other is a destructive lie.
—Edith Stein
Sunday Inspiration: Gratefulness
I no longer want to have anything to do with love that forgets to be grateful.
—Thomas Merton
Sunday Inspiration: Miracles
Where there is great love there are always miracles.

Sunday Inspiration: Dreams
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.
—Langston Hughes
