Famous Edward Grinnan Quotes

“Prayer," she said, "is not really about the prayer, whatever you've been praying for. It's about trust, trust in your faith, trust you are being heard, trust that you are not alone. Prayer is about trust more than answers. Sometimes it is the only healthy way to channel your anger. ... Anger is fear turned inside out.”

“As I sat on a bench in Stuyvesant Park gazing at the fountain I thought about the nature of miracles. Miracles of science like the MRI machine I'd just spent some time in. The miracle of a lost man being looked over by the angels. The miracle of a tree that's grown for over 200 years. All around us are miracles if we merely open our eyes to God's grace and glory. ... the words of St. Augustine. 'Miracles are not a contradiction to nature. They are only in contradiction with what we know of nature.”
