The only separation the Bible knows is between believers on the one hand and unbelievers on the other. Any other kind of separation, division, disunity is of the devil. It is evil and from sin.

Our lives are a response to a love that we already have received.

I think that most of us would prefer to be popular than unpopular.

I wish that we did have a magic wand which we could wave and hey presto! Magic! Unfortunately life is not like that.

I don't struggle to forgive people. I find it quite easy to forgive people for the harms that they have inflicted on me. What I do find challenging is to forgive people for the harms they inflict on my daughters and family. So, I find it challenging when I see somebody else experience hurt. I also look at my children and family and then I realize, I don't stand inside their skin and that is for me a forgiveness practice I still need to engage in.

All of our humanity is dependent upon recognizing the humanity in others

If you want peace, you don't talk to your friends. You talk to your enemies.
