More From Antoine De Saint-Exupery

Does the sun ask itself, "am i good? am i worthwhile? is there enough of me?" no, it burns and it shines. does the sun ask itself, "what does the moon think of me? how does mars feel about me today?" no it burns, it shines. does the sun ask itself, "am i as big as other suns in other galaxies?" no, it burns, it shines.
Moon Thinking Shining
Love never dies a natural death. it dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. it dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. it dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.

Faith and daily life, faith and work-these are not separate things. they are one and the same. to think of them as separate-that faith is faith, and work is work-is theoretical faith. based on the recognition that work and faith are one and the same, we should put one hundred percent of our energy into our jobs and one hundred percent into our faith, too. when we resolve to do this, we enter the path of victory in life. faith means to show irrefutable proof of victory amid the realities of society and in our own daily lives.
Jobs Mean Reality
Our cover has always been really important. for those of you who haven’t seen itcharles burns, who is a graphic artist, does four portraits, so it’s split into quadrants and there’s four heads, basically—portraits of people. we’ve actually often thought and freaked out, what if something happened to charles burns? because he’s so identified with the cover of our magazine, i don’t know what we would do if anything happened to charles burns.
Artist People What If
The reality of living by faith as though we were already dead, of living by faith in open communion with god, and then stepping back into the external world as though we are already raised from the dead, this is not once for all, it is a matter of moment-by-moment faith, and living moment by moment. this morning's faith will never do for this noon. the faith of this noon will never do for suppertime . the faith of suppertime will never do for the next morning. thank god for the reality for which we were created, a moment-by-moment communication with god himself.
God Morning Communication
The best definition i can find of faith is the dependence upon the veracity of another. the bible definition in the 11th chapter of hebrews is, 'faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.' in other words, faith says amen to everything that god says. faith takes god without any ifs, if god says it, faith says i believe it; faith says amen to it.

Genesis 8:22 as long as the earth endures, seed time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, will never cease. i believe [without evidence] that is the infallible word of god and that's the way it is going to be for his creation. the earth will end only when god declares its time to be over. man will not destroy this earth. this earth will not be destroyed by a flood.

It is better to believe in men too rashly, and regret, than believe too meanly. men could be more than they are, if they would try for it. he has shown them that.
Regret Believe Men
The world doesn't want to be punished. it wants to remain in darkness. it doesn't want to be told that what it believes is false. if you also don't want to be corrected, then you might as well leave the church and spend your time at the bar and brothel. but if you want to be saved-and remember that there's another life after this one-you must accept correction.
