You worship a God who is holy, transcendent, and eternal. The miracle is, He is willing to have a relationship with you, a sinner, bound by the limitations of being a creature, and incapable of initiating a relationship with your Creator. Never lose your awe of it all.
~ Walter A. Henrichsen
This does not mean, however, that you will not stand before the judgment bar of God and give an account for how you lived the life God gave you. He will remember every thought, motive, word, and deed in your life, and you will be judged accordingly. Your relationship with Him will not be under consideration, but your eternal fruit will.
~ Walter A. Henrichsen

God makes you an incredible offer:You can give your life in exchange for the same thing for which Jesus spent His life – people. People last forever. For good or bad, they are eternal. Spend your life helping them prepare for their eternity. Don't give your life to mediocrity. Life is too short and the issues of eternity too significant.
~ Walter A. Henrichsen
No one will go to heaven glad that they sinned, but they will be glad they obeyed.

Our consumer culture is organized against history. There is a depreciation of memory and a ridicule of hope, which means everything must be held in the now, either an urgent now or an eternal now.

Tendemos demasiado fácilmente a asociar nuestra satisfacción con un sentimiento de bienestar, a buscarla únicamente en nuestra comodidad. Perdemos de vista que, por debajo y detrás de todo eso, está Dios, que nos mantiene y sostiene. Dios permite que nuestro mundo se trastoque para recordarnos que no es nuestra morada permanente ni nuestro destino final y trabajemos por nuestro destino eterno y nuestra salvación.
~ Walter J. Ciszek
This was the "good news" of salvation, meant to remove mankind's last doubts, last fears, about the nature of death. For the resurrection was a fact, a fact as certain and as sure as death itself, and it meant that death held no victory over men, that life beyond death is a certainty and not just a human hope or fable.
~ Walter J. Ciszek
Death to them was not an end, but a beginning, a passage into eternal life.
~ Walter J. Ciszek
Man was created to praise, revere, and serve God in this world and to be happy with him forever in the next.

Let people who do not know what to do with themselves in this life, but fritter away their time reading magazines and watching television, hope for eternal life.....The life I want is a life I could not endure in eternity. It is a life of love and intensity, suffering and creation, that makes life worth while and death welcome. There is no other life I should prefer. Neither should I like not to die.
~ Walter Kaufmann
Those who loved with all their heart and mind and might have always thought of death, and those who knew the endless nights of harrowing concern for others have longed for it. The life I want is a life I could not endure in eternity. It is a life of love and intensity, suffering and creation, that makes life worthwhile and death welcome. There is no other life I should prefer. Neither should I like not to die." (The Faith of a Heretic)
~ Walter Kaufmann
The dead are alive and the living are buried by them.
~ Walter Map
Stelle Dich an den Abrgund der Hölle Und tanze zur Musik der Sterne!
