Quote by Sarah Arthur

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; which means that if the rest of us want to get close to God, we seek them out-not because of what we could possible offer them, as if we're the spiritual first responders on the scene to save the day, but because we recognize how much they have to teach us about who God really is." -Quoted by Sarah Arthur, Author of The One Year Daily Grind.”

“Do not be surprised when the educated executives working for the major record labels have approved for everyone to hear such a vast amount of decadent and shameful lyrics. The primary objective of such music is not to create artful masterpieces or provide wholesome entertainment. Instead, from the very beginning of the production process, the intention has been to forge a degraded and intellectually inert vocabulary that aims to gradually dumb down the listener, bit by bit.”

“When the masses are constantly distracted, and their attention is diverted from reality, they not only lose sight of their own goals but also become more susceptible to injustices and abuses perpetrated by those in power. The root cause lies in the fact that a mind occupied with mindless pursuits and overwhelmed by constant stimulation never gets the chance to nourish itself, engage in critical thinking, or use higher intellectual skills—a state of mind that makes us really vulnerable to the powers that be.”

“They tried to teach me The infinite possibility Living inside as my soul Could be sold for some shiny metal That they called gold. But they couldn't reach Far enough inside of my mind With their warped rhymes To alter the golden etchings of wisdom That reminded me — Who I am — my soul — Is priceless beyond material prosperity — No matter its apparent luminosity — For all that lusters does so Because of grandiose exchanges of energy Between Earth and Sun...”

“The soul has her own currency. She mints her spiritual coinage and stamps it with the image of some beloved face. With it she pays her debts, with it she reckons, saying, “This man has worth, this man is worthless.” And in time she forgets its origin; it seems to her to be a thing unalterable, divine. But the soul can also have her bankruptcies. Perhaps she will be the richer in the end. In her agony she learns to reckon clearly. Fair as the coin may have been, it was not accurate; and though she knew it not, there were treasures that it could not buy. The face, however beloved, was mortal, and as liable as the soul herself to err. We do but shift responsibility by making a standard of the dead. There is, indeed, another coinage that bears on it not man’s image but God’s. It is incorruptible, and the soul may trust it safely; it will serve her beyond the stars. But it cannot give us friends, or the embrace of a lover, or the touch of children, for with our fellow mortals it has no concern. It cannot even give the joys we call trivial—fine weather, the pleasures of meat and drink, bathing and the hot sand afterwards, running, dreamless sleep. Have we learnt the true discipline of a bankruptcy if we turn to such coinage as this? Will it really profit us so much if we save our souls and lose the whole world?”
