My desire, in these writings, is to try to make real and to communicate the immensity of the love of God for each and every one of us and for the whole of creation.
I look around me and I find, in everything, in every cloud, in every blade of grass, in the blue of the sky, in every drop of rain, an awareness of the reality of the existence of God.
It is this that I long to share.

About making the world a better place
The only way we can make the world a better place
is by being a better person ourselves.

About being beloved by God
If only we could know how much we are beloved by God,
it would surely lift and raise our spirits,
however low we might feel at times.

About misery and joy
Misery begets misery
and joy begets joy.
May we all try to develop our capacity for joy
and resist misery wherever we can.
One thing we can always try to do is to smile at people whenever we can.
Almost invariably, they will smile back.

About the only message we need to share
The only message that we need to give to everyone is this.
God loves us.
God has loved us into and holds us in existence.
God cares about and for us, no matter where we are or what we have done.
God is always there for us.
What we all need to learn to do is to live the very best lives we are able to live; not to throw our lives away by living in ways that cannot make us happy.
And the very best way we can do this is by trying to love and care for others in the very best way we can.
