Jean Vanier Quotes

Some People May Find Material Chores Irksome; They Would Prefer To Use Their Time To Talk And Be With Others. They Haven't Yet Realized That The Thousand And One Small Things That Have To Be Done Each Day, The Cycle Of Dirtying And Cleaning, Were Given By God To Enable Us To Communicate Through Matter. . . . We Are All Called To Do, Not Extraordinary Things, But Very Ordinary Things, With An Extraordinary Love That Flows From The Heart Of God.

. . . A Community Which Has A Sense Of Work Done Well, Quietly And Lovingly, Humbly And Without Fuss, Can Become A Community Where The Presence Of God Is Profoundly Lived. . . . So The Community Will Take On A Whole Contemplative Dimension.
