“It is that holy poetry and singing we are after. ... It is the wild singing we are after, our chance to use the wild language we are learning by heart under the sea. When a woman speaks her truth, fires up her intention and feeling, staying tight with the instinctive nature, she is singing, she is living in the wild breath-stream of the soul. To live this way is a cycle in itself, one meant to go on, go on, go on.” WayHeartSoulUseFeelingsSpeakLanguageChanceFireSeaGoes OnHolySingingBreathsIntentionStreamsStayingCycles Author:Clarissa Pinkola Estes
“The pursuit of God is not a part-time, weekend exercise. If it is, chances are you will experience a part-time, weekend freedom. Abiding requires a kind of staying power. The pursuit is relentless. It hungers and thirsts. It pants as the deer after the mountain brook. It takes the kingdom by storm...The pursuit of God is a pursuit of passion. Indifference will not do. To abide in the Word is to hang on tenaciously. A weak grip will soon slip away. Discipleship requires staying power. We sign up for duration. We do not graduate until heaven.” IfsKindPassionHeavenChanceExerciseMountainWeakHungerStormPursuitKingdomsIndifferenceStayingWeekendSlipsGraduatesPantsThirstDiscipleshipRelentlessAbidingChances AreBrooksDeerDurationPart TimeHunger And ThirstStaying Power Author:R.
