“Home becomes both memory and ache when you live abroad. Sometimes, it visits you in the smell of rice. Sometimes, in the silence after a call ends.”

“It's you," I said, not able to look away. "It's how I feel when I'm with you. How I think I've always felt. You're my lightning-struck heart. It doesn't matter about the cornerstone. It doesn't matter about who I am or who you are. Not to me. I think it would have always been this way for me. Even if we had never escaped the slums. Ever since the beginning. Ever since I've known you, you've struck my heart, and now I have to let you go because you're not mine to keep. I need someone that I can be strong for. But I need someone who can also be strong for me.”

“Online dating is a lot like picking out a vacuum cleaner: There is a great selection. They all look like they would be a good fit, they may not be exactly what the manufacturer promises, some may have already been used and returned, there are strings attached, and some come at a high cost.”

“The Triune God is in the world, nearer to us than we are to ourselves, yet the world is also encompassed by his loving presence. He does have the whole world in his hands, even while he inhabits the whole world. For Christians, being saved means being caught up into this communion, indwelled by God and indwelling in him, and being opened up so that other people have room in us and we in them.”
