He [Jesus] has no need of our works but only of our love.

Faith transforms the whole person precisely to the extent that he or she becomes open to love.

Love without faith is as bad as faith without love.

Many do not advance in Christian progress because they stick in penances and particular exercises, while they neglect the love of God, which is the end.

Being a Christian is more like falling in love than understanding a series of ideas.

If your theological convictions are not producing a deeper love for others, then it's time to rethink some stuff.

My love is my weight. Because of it, I move.

Sometimes, the people who make a difference are not the ones with the credentials, but the ones with the concern.

The minister's voice was a pendulum. Swinging for left and down and right and down and left and-How can you claim to be my brother, and hate me? Is that Charity? How can you claim to be my sister and despise me? Is that supposed to be Charity? How can you claim to be my friend and misuse and wrongfully abuse me? Is that Charity?...'now abideth faith, hope and charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angles, but am note nice, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but am not nice, I am nothing. If I give all I posses to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but am not nice, I gain nothing.

Authentic faith cannot help but act.

Love by faith. Love our enemies by faith. Love our neighbors by faith. Love fellow believers by faith. Love our family members by faith. Love our spouses by faith. Love our in-laws by faith. Love a rebellious teenager by faith. Love our betrayer by faith. Love an ill and bitter parent by faith. Love by faith, not just by feeling.
