A. W. Tozer

An infinite God can give all of himself to each of His children. He does not distribute himself so that each may have a part, but to each one He gives all of Himself as fully as if there were no others".

Bruce Cockburn

Some of us live and some of us die
Someday God's gonna tell us why
Open your hearts and grow with what life sends
We'll meet one day at the festival of friends

Loving Kindness Practice

Metta, or Loving Kindness Practice is a way consciously activating the energy of loving kindness.
An example of a Metta Meditation is:
"May I be filled with Loving Kindness.
May I be healthy.May I be filled with Joy.
May I be Free"
One can say it first for oneself, then for specific other people and then for all beings.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?"
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God;
your playing small doesn't serve the world.

Peace will not come out of a clash of arms but out of justice lived and done by unarmed nations in the face of odds.
