“T he greatest disease in the West today is not TB or leprosy; it is being unwanted, unloved, and
uncared for. We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair,
and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread but there
are many more dying for a little love. The poverty in the West is a different kind of poverty -- it is not
only a poverty of loneliness but also of spirituality. There's a hunger for love, as there is a hunger for
God.”

“God made the world for the delight of human beings-- if we could see His goodness everywhere, His
concern for us, His awareness of our needs: the phone call we've waited for, the ride we are offered,
the letter in the mail, just the little things He does for us throughout the day. As we remember and
notice His love for us, we just begin to fall in love with Him because He is so busy with us -- you just
can't resist Him. I believe there's no such thing as luck in life, it's God's love, it's His.”
