Desert Fathers!

The Desert Fathers say, "If you have a heart, you can be saved."

Unfortunately, when I jotted this quote down at some point during my last year at college, I failed to keep a note of the reference. It might be from Becoming Fire, but I have no clue what the page # is. Oh well. At least this isn't a term paper, right?

At any rate, I love this quote and keep it on a little card in a visible place at my desk because it is a good reminder that salvation is always close at hand. Yes, I have a heart. Yes, I can be saved--if I cooperate with God's mercy, grace, and above all, love which He is always extending to me.

Blessed be God forever, for ages unending, amen!
