Whether we're forgiving our parents or someone else_or ourselves, the laws of mind remain the same._ As we love, we shall be released from pain and as we deny love, we shall remain in pain. _Each of us have different fears and different manifestations of fear, _but all of us are saved by the same technique: _The call to God to save our lives by salvaging our minds. _'Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. _For love is the kingdom and love is the glory and love is the power, forever_and forever.

In order to reach for the stars, you must have both feet planted firmly on the ground.

You won't find your soul in a textbook, self-help book, or buy it in a store. Sometimes, it's just a matter of looking past the anger, regret, and envy to see its smiling face.

When I remove the layers that say I can't, I discover a burning ember that says I should, I can, and I will.

Controlling unwanted thoughts is not the problem. Believing, thrusting, and taking direction from them is.

Forgiving someone else doesn't give them a free pass. It gives you a free pass to move on.

Start and end your day with God.Seek His presence and blessing daily.

Make the right choicesFor the right reasonsand the right things will happen.

Your soul does not give you your dreams if you don__ have what it takes inside to achieve them.

For the future, I shall rely only upon those elements of my character which I have tested. Who would ever have said that I should find pleasure in shedding tears? That I should love the man who proves to me that I am nothing more than a fool?

There are lots of real reasons to decide to leave something or someone, but there are lots of other reasons that are less valid and less real and less about a relationship than our own minds: Fear (of screwing up, of being left, of not being good enough), restlessness, resistance to growing up, PMS, not knowing how to live without drama, fearing that you're getting happy, and happiness is boring. The thing that scared me the most was the knowledge that if I stayed, something was going to change, and that something was probably me. I didn't know what changed me would look like, or if I would like her more or less than I already did. Would I still recognize myself? Would I still be myself?

Once your heart overflows with love, another heart will follow. And so it goes. Yeshua: One Hundred Meaningful Messages for Messengers

Love can flow like the river, fly with the bird, sing with the crickets at night. It is in the energy of the river, the flight of the bird, the song from the cricket. There is nowhere where love is not.

Living on the verge is not about doing more, but about being more. It isn__ about achieving more; it__ about experiencing more. It__ not about being someone different, as there __ no __etter version of you_ on the horizon. Everything you__e searching for is available to you in this moment. Everything you need is right here on the verge.

I remembered learning from my favorite professor at Belmont to __urround yourself with people who are better than you,_ and I was now living that mantra.

You take a step, then another. That__ the journey. But to take a step with your eyes open is not a journey at all, it__ a remaking of your own mind.

First we crawl. Later we crawl on broken glass.

What you learn is your personal treasure. No one can take it away from you.
