"So many centuries in the long history of humanity have passed. So much has happened. So many opportunities and so many failures. The Fall, the Flood, the election of the people of Israel and the promises and the covenants; the oracles of the prophets in warning, condemnation and hope; the exile and return of Israel. So many words and so many responses. And after all this, God turns asks this one question, ‘What do you seek?’"

"Every day Jesus offers us the same open invitation, ‘Come and see.’ Jesus wants to be with us so we too can spend some time with him. The choice whether or not we accept this invitation and follow Jesus is ours to make. He will not force us or make us follow him. It has to be our choice. If we do follow Jesus, then we are going to be changed, just as Andrew was. You can’t experience Jesus and stay the same."

"Listening is a style of being in the world, of those who do not live by their self, but by what has been given to them. Those who listen are aware of receiving life from others. But it’s not enough to listen only: we are disciples when listening begets a movement, an action; when what we’ve heard moves us to walk behind the One Who speaks to us; when it causes us to go to Him when it gives birth to a relationship."

"What is your calling? What is my calling? The general answer to those questions is simple: we are called to know, love and serve God. But how? How are each of us called to serve God? The particular answer to this question is a mystery, the mystery of our lives. The mystery unfolds every time we respond to God’s call. We come before the Lord today and ask for the grace to be attuned to God’s call in our lives."
