What does our faith call us to? (President Jimmy Carter / Pope Benedict XVI)

I have one life and one chance
to make it count for something.
I’m free to choose that something.
My faith demands that I do whatever I can,
wherever I am, whenever I can,
for as long as I can with whatever I have
to try to make a difference.

--President Jimmy Carter

   Dear friends, may no adversity paralyze you. Be afraid neither of the world, nor of the future, nor of your weakness. The Lord has allowed you to live in this moment of history so that, by your faith, his name will continue to resound throughout the world. 

--Pope Benedict XVI
