“Today we often feel we must “get away” from our daily routine in order to worship God, but that is only because we haven’t learned to practice his presence all the time. Brother Lawrence found it easy to worship God through the common tasks of life; he didn’t have to go away for special spiritual retreats.”

“If perfection was a requirement for friendship with God, we would never be able to be his friends. Fortunately, because of God’s grace, Jesus is still the “friend of sinners.”

“El plan Daniel sea distinto a otros métodos. Está construido sobre el poder de Dios para ayudarte a cambiar, no solamente sobre tu propia fuerza de voluntad. Seamos sinceros. La fuerza de voluntad funciona durante unas semanas, o quizá durante un mes o dos como mucho. Por eso los propósitos de Año Nuevo nunca duran. Intentar cambiar solo con la fuerza de voluntad es agotador. Puedes mantenerlo un tiempo, pero se siente artificial y estresante obligarte a ser distinto simplemente con la fuerza de voluntad.”

“Pain is the fuel of passion — it energizes us with an intensity to change that we don’t normally possess. C. S. Lewis said, “Pain is God’s megaphone.” It is God’s way of arousing us from spiritual lethargy. Your problems are not punishment; they are wake-up calls from a loving God. God is not mad at you; he’s mad about you, and he will do whatever it takes to bring you back into fellowship with him.”
