Here are my gleanings from a Valentine's Day reflection:


Story precis:
Parents tell young son, Paul, that their newborn baby, his baby brother David, "has just come  from God." Later, they hear Paul whispering into the ear of his baby brother, "What's God like; I'm beginning to forget."

"Ponder and be moved by the One who becomes humble and poor, who goes down the ladder of human promotion instead of up, and who stoops in love before his disciples and before you in order to wash your feet."

"Prayer may be likened to an artist’s studio. All that God desires is that I sit and allow him to paint his likeness in me."
