“Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hatred. It is a power that breaks the chains of bitterness and the shackles of selfishness.”

“And for all these people alike, the key to healing turned out to be the same. Each had a hurt he had to forgive.”

“No hatred”

“Your love in me is stronger than the hatred.”

“Memories are the key not to the past, but to the future.”

“Even as the angry vengeful thoughts boiled through me, I saw the sin of them. Jesus Christ had died for this man; was I going to ask for more? Lord Jesus, I prayed, forgive me and help me to forgive him....Jesus, I cannot forgive him. Give me your forgiveness....And so I discovered that it is not on our forgiveness any more than on our goodness that the world's healing hinges, but on His. When He tells us to love our enemies, He gives along with the command, the love itself.”

“Forgiveness is an act of the will, and the will can function regardless of the temperature of the heart.”
