Truth is the basis of all healing.

My dear sister, you can__ escape God, and you can__ escape your skeletons in the closet. They will always be there until you take them out from behind those dusty old moth-eaten coats. Your exterior facade of __verything is alright_ only works for a little while, and then the cracks begin to show. You can only hide behind yourself for so long. You can__ keep running!

Centuries-old wounds are still raw because they never healed right in the first place. Here is the essential truth. We are better together than we are apart.

Spirituality isn't some quaint stepchild of an intelligent worldview, or the only option for those of us not smart enough to understand the facts of the real world. Spirituality reflects the most sophisticated mindset, and the most powerful force available for the transformation of human suffering.

Our culture is obsessed with perfection, especially when it comes to the way women look.

There is no one way to recover and heal from any trauma. Each survivor chooses their own path or stumbles across it.

Don't stay too long in the shame-filled grounds of relapse. Fertile soil awaits your return and your recoverying.

Getting unstuck is a matter of choice. If you want flourish in life make a choice today to move into that reality. You can do it.

She is such a blade_-beautiful, powerful, and deadly to her enemies-__s well as her bond-mate due to her fatal flaw. The questions are__ow deep is her flaw and can it be healed?

There are two decisions you need to make after you have accepted Jesus into your life. One: You need to make the decision to get over your past. You will not grow unless you make a conscious decision to get over your past. Two: Once you have made that decision, you need to trust God to help you get over your past...You didn__ just automatically become a Christian, did you? You weren__ made a Christian by just going to church. Just like you are not made a car by sitting in a garage all day! You have to make a decision.

Some part of him had hoped that a woman might one day see beyond his scars to the man he was inside. But Megan was doing more than just ignoring his ugliness. She was _accepting_ it with a woman's gentleness, her touch soothing memories of savage pain, grief, loneliness.

Hope is immeasurable anchor.
