Famous Craig D. Lounsbrough Quotes

“It is not within my power to refuse the journey of life regardless of the nature of my fears or the depth of my selfishness, for the definitions of ‘journey’ and ‘life’ are indistinguishably synonymous. I can however sufficiently inhibit them and amply fight them to the point that I have accepted the journey, but the journey is now solely defined as my effort to forsake the journey.”

“How do I hold an existence as profoundly intricate, brilliantly ingenious, exquisitely beautiful, and expansive beyond comprehension to some time frame within which it will no longer exist? Would not these attributes, as resplendent and incomprehensible as they are, not suggest something bigger than the rubrics of time? As such, I am led to believe that we live in an existence that is as timeless as the attributes that possess it, and as expansive as the divine passion that shaped it.”

“Prayer is where I trade the rhetoric of men the for the promises of God. It is where I petition perfection instead of count on those who someone survived an election. It is to accept the incomprehensible invitation of God to have this weak voice of mine thunder down the halls of heaven and roll up to the throne of the God of all eternity so that as small as I am, I might have an audience with this “King of kings.” It is where my fatigue becomes a stage upon which God can unveil His strength in stunning fashion, and where my fear is obliterated by His courage. Prayer is where I rise above this tangled world and find myself enveloped by a world that I visit today, but will live in tomorrow. Prayer is utterly indispensable to this cringing existence, for unless I rise above it I will be consumed by the darkness of it. Prayer is this and does this and will always be this.”

“And then I yet again find myself standing before the very thing that has relentlessly pummeled me, staring through a bloodied brow realizing that my most heroic efforts have utterly failed to bring this thing to an ‘end.’ And at those most hopeless of moments where I stand before a monster I cannot slay, it would behoove me to finally accept the reality that the ‘beginning of the end’ is only possible when I ‘begin’ to surrender that thing to God and ‘end’ my feeble attempts to slay it on my own.”

“Without hesitation I would say that we should sing through the night. And that is not to say that we should enjoy the night or relish the darkness. I say that we should sing through the night because the darkness is only as deep as the light that is never more than a horizon away. And you will never find yourself in any night that is not turning in the direction of that horizon.”
