“We ask for forgiveness. And we forgive others who ask us. In that way we can experience healing, healing in our souls.”

“God, thank you for waking me up this morning. I want to embrace every day, however limited my day may be, as a gift from God. I want to live this day to its fullest. I know there are things I can no longer do. I know I am facing daily limitations. But I want to focus on what I can do, not on what I cannot do. So help me God. I know this day will never be repeated. I know I cannot live it over again. Help me to live it to its fullest.”

“Friends are those rare people who ask how we are, and then wait to hear the answer.”

“As we practice the work of forgiveness we discover more and more that forgiveness and healing are one.”

“Jesus tells Peter to forgive seventy times seven times, not because the person we forgive will it that many times, but because resentment can have such a grip on our hearts that we need to forgive that often for our own healing.”

“Forgiving does not erase the bitter past. A healed memory is not a deleted memory. Instead, forgiving what we cannot forget creates a new way to remember. We change the memory of our past into a hope for our future.”

“His way to bless us is not always the way we want. What is good to Him may not always look good to us.”
