Quotes from the book: HE STILL MOVES STONES

It’s Alright to Dream Again, p. 43
"He Still Moves Stones" by Max Lucado

God does that for the faithful. Just when the womb gets old for babies, Sarai gets pregnant. Just when the failure is too great for grace, David is pardoned. And when the road is too dark for Mary and Mary (Magdalene), the angel glows and the Savior shows and the two women will never be the same.
The lesson? Three words. Don’t give up.
Is the trail dark? Don’t sit.
Is the road long? Don’t stop.
Is the night black? Don’t quit.
God is watching. For all you know at this moment he may be telling the angels to move the stone.
The check may be in the mail,
The apology may be in the making.
The job contract may be on the desk.
Don’t quit. For if you do, you might miss the answer to your prayers.
God still send angels. And God still moves stones.

Leo Tolstoy, the great Russian writer, tells of the time he was walking down the street and passed a beggar. Tolstoy reached into his pocket to give the beggar some money, but his pocket was empty. Tolstoy turned to the man and said, “I am sorry, my brother, but I have nothing to give.”

The beggar brightened and said, “you have given me more than I asked for – you have called me brother.

To the loved, a word of affection is a morsel, but to the love-starved, a word of affection can be a feast.

What Annie Dillard says about writing in The Writing Life is true about life: “One of the few things I know about writing is this: spend it all, play it, lose it all, right away, every time. Do not hoard what seems good for a later place in the book, or for another book; give it, give it all, give it now."
