Dee Henderson QUOTES

1 " I love you, in my mind where my thoughts reside, in my heart where my emotions live, and in my soul where my dreams are born. I love you. "

― Dee Henderson , The Healer (O'Malley #5)

2 " Please understand something. God didn’t create evil in the world, but He did create free will, which allowed for the possibility of evil. Science isn’t like that. What you explore and find, God did create. It already exists. When you find it, you are discovering something God made. And everything God created is good. God said so in Genesis. He looked around at everything He had made and said, ‘It is very good.’”
“How men use science can be evil, I’m with you a hundred percent on that,” Bishop added. “People can misuse items God created. But that has everything to do with man’s free will and tendency to evil, not science. What God created is good. So do what you were created to do. Break new scientific ground. Help us understand the dynamics of what God created.
“You can’t protect the world from itself, Gina. You can only give good men the tools necessary to do their jobs. We need to know what is possible. "

3 " She wasn't a cowardIf she were she would have retreated back into her shell years before and pulled back entirely from life. She was a fighter. Life knocked her down, and she coped by getting up and moving on. "

― Dee Henderson , Danger in the Shadows (O'Malley, #0)

4 " But God decided to create a world where free will was more important than no one ever getting hurt. There must be something stunningly beautiful and remarkable about free will that only God can truly grasp, because God hates, literally abhors, evil, yet He created a world where evil could happen if people chose it. "

5 " My faith survived because I realized God didn't want this for us, He never had. I'm passionately looking forward to a new Heaven and Earth where only good exists once more. "

― Dee Henderson

7 " I can tell the difference between the acts of a man and the acts of God. That's why I still believe. I could always tell the difference. "

8 " A romance book is designed to tell you something about love–its ability to endure, forgive, go the extra mile, care about someone, put someone else first. "

― Dee Henderson

9 " Lord, You made us and gave us breath. May we do justice, love and mercy, and walk honorably before you this day. By the precious name of Jesus, I ask for your help to do this. Amen. "

― Dee Henderson , Before I Wake

10 " If he didn’t love so deeply, he couldn’t grieve so deeply. But he’s drowning in it. "

13 " God gave Adam and Eve that free will and choice. He gave them one warning: eat of any tree that is here, including the wonderful tree of life, but don’t eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil…I wish Adam and Eve had thought more about what knowledge meant. Eve saw it as a good thing, to know more. But how do you really know something? You experience it "

― Dee Henderson , Taken

14 " I loved the fact there was a God who had made me, who had created everything around me. Jesus made sense to me. He’s real. He’s personal.”
“He likes you,” Bishop remarked gently.
“Exactly…I wasn’t smarted than He was. I adored Jesus for that fact. Every question I had, Jesus knew how to answer. That was such a relief. Not that He would always answer, but I knew I could search for an answer and find one, and it often felt like God was helping me go the right direction with my search.”
“I’d bump into something cool God had made, and I’d promptly tell Him all about what I’d found and bombard Him with questions about it. "

― Dee Henderson , The Guardian (O'Malley #2)

― Dee Henderson , Before I Wake

17 " God decided to create a world where free will was more important than no one ever getting hurt.

"

18 " She did as asked and then felt Marie's hands come up to cradle her face. Marie said softly, 'Jesus, no one understands a heavy load better than you. No one has ever borne heavier. Bear up under this one with Ann, so she will know her only purpose here is to help others, love expansively, and be your hands and feet, your words of advice and wisdom when opportunities present themselves for her to help Grace and Karen. And yes, Josh and Will and Gabriel. Do whatever is necessary for Ann's success in the days ahead. Show your love to my friend and comfort her by your Spirit. Amen. "

― Dee Henderson , Traces of Guilt (Evie Blackwell Cold Case, #1)

19 " I think I'm honored. Or speechless. Maybe something in between there. "

― Dee Henderson , Before I Wake
