1 " What are we without belief, without purpose? "
― Rachelle Dekker , The Choosing (Seer, #1)
2 " You are the daughter of your Father, inheritor of the Earth, beautiful and blameless, chosen. "
3 " Beautiful. Worthy of the highest love. Powerful and perfect. Beautiful is my daughter. "
4 " The truth is beautiful, like you. The truth is you have been made perfect and are wholly loved. Chosen simply because you breathe, because you exist, because of who created you. "
5 " I believe that there is a perfect plan set before each of us, and when we follow that plan things work out exactly as they should. For example, many would not believe we were meant to be a part of each other’s paths, yet here we are "
6 " I believe the flower’s purpose is not to be beautiful; it is to grow. Many seeds shrivel in the ground, but this one grew, and therefore it has been picked already, it is chosen already, it is beautiful already. "
7 " Fear is an illusion "
8 " Hear and believe, even in the storm. When it grows dark, find your song of truth, and then even in the darkness you will know who you are. "
9 " I know we are raised to believe that our lives are defined by being chosen or not being chosen, but I’m starting to think there’s another truth we’re missing "
10 " It is only by believing that you can save your life. Only when you believe in your true Father, only when you know who you are and who lives within you, can you be truly saved. "
11 " You can't lose this war, because your Father has already won. This isn't a battle of skin and bones, flesh and blood. This is about your faith, about your identity. When you discover who you truly are, you discover there is no war left to fight at all. "
― Rachelle Dekker , The Calling (Seer #2)
12 " Please don't let the thing He loves so much be fooled by darkness. "
13 " When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie, my grace, all-sufficient, shall be thy supply. "
― Rachelle Dekker , When Through Deep Waters
14 " Never run from fear. Walk through the fear. Only in facing fear can you let it go. Remember who you are. "
― Rachelle Dekker , The Returning (Seer, #3)
15 " Is that what living is for you? Breathing? We'' just end up right back where we started. Living isn't about flesh and bone and breathing. It's about faith. Faith that surpasses fear. Faith in something bigger than yourself. That's what we're doing here, showing people how to live! "
16 " Is that what living is for you? Breathing? We'll just end up right back where we started. Living isn't about flesh and bone and breathing. It's about faith. Faith that surpasses fear. Faith in something bigger than yourself. That's what we're doing here, showing people how to live! "
17 " Fear is real; we know this, but it only has the power we give to it. Take away its power and what is it? Don't shove it down or pretend it doesn't exist. See what you are afraid of and trust that your faith and your Father are bigger. All that is supposed to happen will happen. You are afraid for Elise because you don't know what will happen to her while you are gone, but trust that your Father does. "
― Rachelle Dekker
18 " Remember, we all have our place "
19 " What if I don’t want to be chosen?” “Hush! All girls want to be chosen. God commands it. Otherwise, you’ll live a life of solitude, never to be a wife or have children. Would you rather have that?” “But why do I have to work to be picked? Why can’t I just pick for myself without all this work?” “Because that is not the law.” “It’s a stupid law,” Carrington says under her breath. “Carrington Hale, you will not speak about the law this way. The law saved our race, our people. You wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for the Authority and the true law. "
20 " True freedom, freedom from the pain that latched itself to your memories, was only obtained by surrender. "
