New Book - The Sacred Romance

I'm reading a new book. Below are a few excerpts that kind of hit the nail on the head for me right now..

Chapter: Losing Heart (The Lost Life of the Heart)

* But when we lose our passion for life, when deadness sets in which we cannot seem to shake, we confess, "My hearts just not in it."

* In the end it doesn't matter how well we have performed or what we have accomplished - a life withot heart is not worth living. For out of this wellspring of our soul flows all true caring and all meaningful work, all real worship and all sacrifice.

* Very seldom are we ever invited to live out of our heart. If we are wanted, we are often wanted for what we can offer functionally.
