So the next time you see leftover chicken in the street, or a rat running into a sewer, or a crow going through your trash, or seagulls in your discount shopping center parking lot, always remember Matthew 6:26 and reconsider your complaint in queue.
You’re up against far more than you can handle on your own….Pray that I’ll know what to say and have the courage to say it at the right time, telling the mystery to one and all, the Message that I, jailbird preacher that I am, am responsible for getting out.
- Ephesians 6: 13, 19-20

Yes. We would eat chocolates and smoke cigarettes and read the Bible, which is the only way to do it, if you ask me. …the bible is so good with chocolate. I always thought the Bible was more of a salad thing, you know, but it isn’t. It is a chocolate thing.
- “Penny” excerpt from Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller
…but if you’re content to be simply yourself, you’ll become more than yourself.
- Luke 14:12 (MSG)
