It is the will toward God, the will to the all-controlling might of His kingdom, His love and justice, which forces us into the inner seclusion where the loneliness of the soul becomes the fellowship of the soul with God and the fellowship of the Church.

- Eberhard Arnold The Meaning and Power of Prayer LifeThe love to Jesus, this burning personal love to God who has made himself known to us, is and remains the witness to the unity of all-embracing life. This love as the deepest and most heartfelt personal relationship finds its living expression in calling upon the One it loves. The truth and force of this love, however, lies in the decisive fact that it is God, really God, whom it meets in Christ. One who really believes in God as He is and works, will be urged again and again to communicate with Him.

Yesterday's quote
July 16,2025
Only one thing matters: to be open to the living God, to the life-giving Spirit of Jesus Christ, so that He may awaken and bring into being the same life that He gave to. If we are open in this way, new unities of life will constantly arise in which the love of complete community encompasses and penetrates everything. Complete community is a matter of new birth and resurrection. This has been given even to our time by the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ in the power of eternal birth and new resurrection.

Christ, who is undivided, wants to have us whole and undivided. He loves decision. He loves His enemies more than His half-hearted friends. He hates those who falsify Him more than those who oppose Him. What He abhors is the lukewarm, the colorless gray, the half-light, the pious talk that blurs and mixes everything and commits one to nothing. He sweeps all this away whenever He draws near.
