Henri Nouwen once asked Mother Teresa for spiritual direction. Spend one hour each day in adoration of your Lord, she said, and never do anything you know is wrong. Follow this and you'll be fine.

If only Jesus' followers shared his personality. That one shift alone would correct so many of the ridiculous and horrifying things that pass for popular Christianity.
John Eldredge
Image
To find God, you must look with all your heart. To remain present to God, you must remain present to your heart. To hear his voice, you must listen with all your heart. To love him, you must love with all your heart. You cannot be the person God meant you to be, and you cannot live the life he meant you to live, unless you live from the heart.

We are created for adventure, and if we cannot find one, we start blowing things out of proportion so it feels like we have one.
John Eldredge
Image
We are made in the image of God we carry within us the desire for our true life of intimacy and adventure. To say we want less than that is to lie.
John Eldredge

It is the thoughts and intents of the heart that shape a person's life.
John Eldredge
Image
It takes great courage to be vulnerable. It takes enormous strength to be a real woman.

Am I really a man? Have I got what it takeswhen it counts?

We don't live in the Garden. We live far from Eden. Every life is full of heartaches. Every life, frankly, is unspeakably sad.
John Eldredge
Image
An intimate encounter with Jesus is the most transforming experience of human existence. To know him as he is, is to come home. To have his life, joy, love, and presence cannot be compared. A true knowledge of Jesus is our greatest need and our greatest happiness.

The true story of every person in this world is not the story you see, the external story. The true story of each person is the journey of his or her heart.
