The fruit of love is service, which is compassion in action.

The world tells us to seek success, power and money; God tells us to seek humility, service and love.

To Almighty God, it's not how much we give, but how much love we put in the giving. Love is not measured by how much we do; love is measured by how much love we put in; how much it is hurting us in loving.

The less we have, the more we give. Seems absurd, but it's the logic of love.

Prayer makes your heart bigger, until it is capable of containing the gift of God himself. Prayer begets faith, faith begets love, and love begets service on behalf of the poor.

The fruit of love is service. The fruit of service is peace. And peace begins with a smile.
