“In our family, forgiveness is something you pray for, something you yearn to receive—but so seldom do you give it to others.”

“Wizard's Fourth RuleThere is magic in sincere forgiveness; in the forgiveness you give, but more so in the forgiveness you receive.”

“If you have ever prayed for something and received what you wanted, you engaged in Cosmic Ordering.”

“If expecting something in return is your reason for giving, you are really not giving- you're swapping. If you receive something in return for your gift, what you receive is a bonus - not a repayment of a debt.”

“Carrying a grudge is a heavy burden. As you forgive, you will feel the joy of being forgiven. At this Christmastime you can give and receive the gift of forgiveness. The feeling of happiness that will come will be a glimpse of what we can feel at home together in the eternal home for which we yearn.”

“For this reason I tell you: When you pray and ask for something, believe that you have received it, and you will be given whatever you ask for.”
