Sunday Inspiration: Justice Is Not Enough
Peace is a product of justice, but justice is not enough. Love is necessary. The love that makes us feel that we are family is properly what makes true peace.
—Saint Óscar Romero
Sunday Inspiration: Worthy
Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy. That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody’s business. What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy.
—Thomas Merton
Sunday Inspiration: Wonder and Silence
It seems to me that some of us value information over wonder, and noise over silence. And I feel that we need a lot more wonder and a lot more silence in our lives.
—Fred Rogers
Sunday Inspiration: Speaking of Peace
Before you speak of peace, you must first have it in your heart.
—Saint Francis of Assisi
Sunday Inspiration: Empathy
Whenever I see someone with an abundance of empathy I want to ask what heartbreak they have endured, for compassion is often birthed in the valley of despair.
—Zoe Clark-Coates
Sunday Inspiration: On Purpose
Find out who you are and do it on purpose.
—Dolly Parton
Sunday Inspiration: Character
People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.
—Ralph Waldo Emerson
Sunday Inspiration: Strength
You don’t know how strong you are until strong is the only choice you have.
—Bob Marley
Sunday Inspiration: A Special Heart
To be kind is more important than to be right. Many times, what people need is not a brilliant mind that speaks but a special heart that listens.
—F. Scott Fitzgerald
Sunday Inspiration: Becoming Wise
The day a child realizes that all adults are imperfect, he becomes an adolescent; the day he forgives them, he becomes an adult; the day he forgives himself, he becomes wise.
—Alden Nowlan
