Beggars should be entirely abolished! Truly, it is annoying to give to them and annoying not to give to them.

Our prayers
"Our prayers are answered not when we are given what we ask, but when we are challenged to be what we can be."

Once I was in Victoria
"Once I was in Victoria, and I saw a very large house. They told me it was a bank and that the white men place their money there to be taken care of, and that by and by they got it back with interest.
We are Indians and we have no such bank; but when we have plenty of money or blankets, we give them away to other chiefs and people, and by and by they return them with interest, and our hearts feel good. Our way of giving is our bank."
~Chief Maquinna, Nootka

Our weaknesses
Our weaknesses are divine gifts that when embraced will enable us to make our purposeful contribution to the whole, which is why we incarnated in the first place.

Truth
Truth cannot be borrowed, it cannot be transferred, it cannot be a gift from anybody to you. You have to dig for it inside your being.

Your relationships
Your relationships reflect your fears and limits. How can anyone ever give you what you won't allow?

God, I don't have
God, I don’t have great faith, but I can be faithful. My belief in you may be seasonal, but my faithfulness will not. I will follow in the way of Christ. I will act as though my life and the lives of others matter. I will love. I have no greater gift to offer than my life. Take it.

The greatest gift
The greatest gift I can conceive of having from anyone is to be seen by them, heard by them, to be understood and touched by them. The greatest gift I can give is to see, hear, understand and to touch another person. When this is done I feel contact has been made.

The power to love
The power to love is God's greatest gift to man, for it never can be taken from the blessed one who loves.

The first great silence
The first great silence in the life of Jesus holds all His years of growth. It meant study in the shadows of the synagogue, meditation on the upland pastures, prayer beneath the evening stars. The first great silence for every life should be, know thyself. God has given to every individual soul some gift that is unique, peculiar to itself; some delicate tint that it alone can add to the great picture; some tone that no other soul can sound forth.

There is no supply
There is no supply outside of your being. If you want to enjoy the abundance of supply, you must open out a way for that supply to escape.
