Yearning for the Living God by F. Enzio Busche

"The world we live in is not the real thing.  The actual world--which is closer to us than we sometimes realize--is full of truth and capable of bringing us to a higher level than we can understand...My spiritual insight let me see that we as human beings live far below our potential from day to day.  One day we will be confronted with our true potential; and we will see what we have missed because we have not embraced the ultimate help offered to us from our Creator...every choice we make defines our lives in the eternities.  Nothing can be hidden, and even every thoughtless spoken word will be brought to our painful awareness one day." p. 53-54

"...when we pray and listen carefully to the promptings of the Spirit, miracles can happen.  The things that seem to be too difficult can be accomplished."  p. 82

"I believe that one of the greatest challenges for members of the Church is to ensure that our lives are not led by routine.  When we are governed by routine, we tend to become insensitive to the need to walk with the companionship of the Holy Ghost."  p. 97

"[Don't wonder], 'What's in it for me?' but ask, 'What does the Lord want me to do?'"  p. 233

"We do not know how close the other side is, and we are not trained or sensitive enough to understand and listen.  Sometimes we say, "I had something funny happen," and we even make jokes or belittle the coincidences or occurrences that we do not comprehend.  We do not understand what is happening--that someone from the other side who loves us dearly is watching over us, trying to bring us to a state of awakening and wanting to help us."  p. 251

"...our purpose is to fill our souls with love." p. 273
