Forgivenss Quotes

“The law is an amazing tool, but it has limits. Good people, on the other hand, don't have limits. The law is not in the business of forgiveness or redemption. The law cannot compel us to love each other or respect each other. It cannot cancel hate or conquer evil; teach grace or extinguish passions. The law cannot achieve these things, not by itself. It takes people -- brave and strong and extraordinary people.”
― Preet Bharara, Doing Justice: A Prosecutor's Thoughts on Crime, Punishment, and the Rule of Law

“They may call you "Stupid" because of what you've done in the past. Hey, you are going to be "Prominent" because of what the Lord has done. The stupid "S" in Saul was exchange to become the Prominent "P" in Paul... and you ask why? It's because of what the Lord has done, Give thanks!”

“When you look around at your community, you may feel some disappointment, worry or apprehension at the state of affairs. You see so much suffering - neighbors arguing, countries fighting, and children being neglected. Merely wishing for everyone to experience divine life on earth will not bring it about. However, we have the capacity to make this world heaven, behinning with how we interact in the world. This is called divinely living - to carry loving-friendliness in our hearts rather than ill will. Just as we can make hell on earth, meeta practice can make heaven on earth.”
― Bhante Henepola Gunaratana, Loving-Kindness in Plain English: The Practice of Metta

“I certainly struggled with anger and resentment for quite some time."
"And how did you change?"
"God used Aunt Drusilla to help me see that unforgiveness binds, but forgiving sets us free. It actually does us more good because our heart is not so cluttered with poisonous thoughts against others. So I had to ask God to help me, forgive me, in order to forgive others. I still do. I certainly do not mean to imply that I am never angry or resentful, simply that I am learning to not let such emotions possess me. (The Making of Mrs. Hale)”
― Carolyn Miller, The Making of Mrs. Hale
