“There is not a flower that opens, not a seed that falls into the ground, and not an ear of wheat that nods on the end of its stalk in the wind that does not preach and proclaim the greatness and the mercy of God to the whole world.” – Thomas Merton

“My personal life may be crowded with small petty incidents, altogether unnoticeable and mean; but if I obey Jesus Christ in the haphazard circumstances, they become pinholes through which I see the face of God, and when I stand face to face with God I will discover that through my obedience thousands were blessed. ” – Oswald Chambers

Happy Valentine's Day

Here are some fun resources to help reflect upon love on a February 14th:

This is a well-done NPR story --with picture show included-- about a friar and nun who get married, and how their love endures: "The romance didn't slow down for him at all. He was someone who was completely unable to separate his devotion to God from his devotion to his wife."

This is probably only funny for public radio listeners, but as an avid one, I thought it was great fun.

Under the Radar is a great source for Christian music listeners who don't necessary like "Christian music"; this is a nice episode, despite the fact that he plays a Chris Rice song [slight cringe]. It includes nice stories from Randall Goodgame and Jenny & Tyler, plus a cover of "Holding out for a Hero."
