One Heart at a Time

We need each other. We need these places of belonging. Hidden in our hearts is the God of compassion, the God of forgiveness, the God of peace. In Calcutta we have communities where Muslims, Hindus and Christians live together. In other areas of Calcutta, on one side there is a Muslim community, on the other a Christian community, with all the tensions you can imagine. We cannot resolve the problems of Northern Ireland, Calcutta, between Israel and Palestine. We cannot resolve the problems of Haiti and the problems in some parts of South America. But what we can do is change the world -- one heart at a time.
