“Forgiveness must be initiated before life can begin.”

“When you initially forgive, it is like letting go of a hot iron. There is initial pain and the scars will show, but you can start living again.”

“Misunderstanding must be nakedly exposed before true understanding can begin to flourish.”

“Sometimes a flame must level a forest to ash before new growth can begin. I believe Wonderland needed a scouring.”

“Before one can walk as Christ walked,and talk as He talked,he must first begin to think as Christ thought.”

“The evil in the world must not make me doubt the existence of God. There could be no evil if there were no God. Before there can be a hole in a uniform, there must be a uniform; before there is death, there must be life; before there is error, there must be truth; before there is a crime, there must be liberty and law; before there is a war, there must be peace; before there is a devil, there must be a God, rebellion against whom made the devil.”
