Children Quote by Eugene Peterson
““It is the very nature of language to form rather than inform. When language is personal, which it is at its best, it reveals; and revelation is always formative - we don't know more, we become more. Our best users of language, poets and lovers and children and saints, use words to make - make intimacies, make character, make beauty, make goodness, make truth.””
![“[In Revelation 10, John] eats the book—not just reads it—he got it into his nerve endings, his reflexes, his imagination. The book he ate was the Holy Scripture. Assimilated into his worship and prayer, his imagining and writing, the book he ate was metabolized into the book he wrote.” quote by Eugene Peterson](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/ebe/eugene-peterson-38215_books_in-revelation-10-john-eats-the-book-not_2187312.jpg)
![“[Jesus] said “Follow me” and ended up with a lot of losers. And these losers ended up, through no virtue or talent of their own, becoming saints. Jesus wasn’t after the best but the worst.” quote by Eugene Peterson](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/976/eugene-peterson-38215_quote_jesus-said-follow-me-and-ended-up-with-a_3023920.jpg)
