One of the things I associate with God is a sunrise. How many sunrises have you missed over the years, and God created that?
Donald Miller
We shouldn’t be afraid to embrace whimsy, that nagging idea that life could be magical it could be special if we were only willing to take a few risks.

My Sunday school teachers had turned Bible narrative into children's fables. They talked about Noah and the ark because the story had animals in it. They failed to mention that this was when God massacred all of humanity.
