1 " Was it possible to be homesick for a soul? "
― Jessica Dotta , Price of Privilege (Price of Privilege, #3)
2 " We often fail to recognize our greatest godsend simply because it comes bundled in suffering. "
3 " None of us have escaped being both good and evil, sometimes simultaneously. "
4 " People may decry God when all is lost—screaming from the wreckage of their lives, demanding answers, unable to comprehend why. Yet who are we to tell a master painter the shades and colors we approve of and the ones we don't—we who are unskilled, and who have no cognizance of the painting's subject matter? "
5 " How does one bear the ache that accompanies seeing the goodness resting in the soul of someone who denies you love because they see only your shortcomings? "
6 " Consider the One you've never been hidden from. The One who watched you while you were yet in the womb, dreaming his plan, waiting to make you his lover. His goal for you isn't me, but him. "
7 " Each one of us is either building his own kingdom or God's Kingdom on earth. Which of those two realities do you suppose we're in as we sit here, putting on airs, congratulating ourselves on having figured out life to our advantages, amassing our comforts for the sole benefit of our families? While outside our doorstep people are desperate for food. Desperate to know their existence matters. Desperate for us to give them acceptance. "
