Amazing quotes...

From the words of St. Augustine
"God, since You fill the heavens and earth, do they contain you? Or, do You fill and overflow them because they cannot contain You? The vessels, which You fill, do not confine You...Furthermore, when You are poured out to us, You are not brought down; we are lifted up...Since all things together could not contain You altogether, does any one thing contain just a single part? And do all things contain that same part at the same time?"
-From Confessions: "Chapter 3: God Fills All Things"

From Mike Yankoski
"If we are the body of Christ - and Christ came not for the healthy but the sick - we need to be fully present in the places where people are most broken. And it has to be more than just a financial presence. That helps, of course. But too often money is insulation - it conveniently keeps us from having to come face-to-face with a man or woman whose life is in tatters."
-Mike Yankoski, Under the Overpass

Just wanted to share some quotes that I found amazing...
