We all tend to measure our worth by what we DO -
the actions we take.

is a greater gift than a steak dinner served brusquely.

Conversations with God are very different
from the usual nature of prayer.
Prayers are commonly only in one direction -
the one praying speaks and hopes God is listening.

for specific things or outcomes one wants,
rather than seeking to better understand the mind of God.

In many ways, it is easier to be a good giver than a good receiver.
The giver chooses the gift and the timing.
More important, societal and religious traditions
tend to elevate the status of giver and lower the status of receiver.
When the Bible (Acts 20:32-35) speaks of it being
more blessed to give than to receive,
I believe that a better translation might be
"take" rather than "receive," as the context
of that passage is "coveting."
Certainly there is nothing blessed about coveting,
stealing, begging, or demanding,
however the skill of graciously receiving a freely offered gift
is another matter entirely.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Grass Quotes and Sayings

Every blade of grass has an angel
that bends over it and whispers, "grow! grow!

if the simple things in nature have a message you understand,
Rejoice, for your soul is alive.
- Eleanora Duse

What is life?
It is the flash of a firefly in the night.
It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime.

the grass and loses itself in the sunset.

We need to find God, and he cannot
be found in noise and restlessness.
God is the friend of silence.
See how nature - trees, flowers, grass-
grows in silence; see the stars,
the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...
We need silence to be able to touch souls.
- Mother Teresa

We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men

They offer sufficient proof that everything
can be taken from a man but one thing:
to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances,
to choose one's own way.
- Viktor E. Frankl
