Be Hard on the issue, Soft on the person.

The Bible is clear about two principles: (1) We always need to forgive, but (2) we don’t always achieve reconciliation. Forgiveness is something that we do in our hearts; we release someone from a debt that they owe us. We write off the person’s debt, and she no longer owes us. We no longer condemn her. She is clean. Only one party is needed for forgiveness: me. The person who owes me a debt does not have to ask my forgiveness. It is a work of grace in my heart.

If you want to become healthy, you have to surround yourself with a group of people that are getting healthy and you have to be connected to a community that is doing what you want to do.

The opposite of bad is not good.The opposite of bad is love

Good pain is pain in the service of a purpose. Bad pain is pain endured because we are resisting a needed growth step.

One of the worst things you can die with is potential.

Consequences give us the pain that motivates us to change.
