41 " When we listen to the voice of the Dreamer and hide behind our somedays, we miss out on the gifts of today. "
― Emily P. Freeman , Graceful (for Young Women): Letting Go of Your Try-Hard Life
42 " God gives us the courage to face those fears and then invites us to move toward him in the midst of them. "
43 " What we believe is the most important, because what we do flows out of what we believe. "
44 " If what you are called to feels less than extraordinary, there is a tendency to think, Well, the Lord has big plans for me later. And you wait patiently until he decides to reveal that master plan. But what if his plan for you is right where you are? Are you missing it because you are looking for something more extraordinary? "
45 " But you can’t stop there, because that’s your body, your skin, your outside. Dead people have all that stuff too. There’s something else that makes you alive. "
46 " We have grown so comfortable in our girl-made hiding places that we forget the most important part of hide-and-seek: the best part of hiding is being found. If no one is looking for you, what’s the point of hiding? Don’t we all really want to be known, to be loved, to be accepted, to be searched for, to be found? "
