What Would Jesus Do Quotes

“I have had a lot to put up with," she said, looking meaningfully at me. "I know the Bible tells us to turn the other cheek but there are only so many cheeks in a day.”
― Jeanette Winterson, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?

“How would I know what Jesus would have done? That fella was a mass of contradictions as far as I can see. One minute he says to turn the other cheek, the next minute he's having a big strop and kicking over lads' market stalls. He says blessed are the meek and he goes around shouting and roaring the odds to everyone. He rises from the dead and then shags off a few weeks later and leaves his buddies in the shit.”

Is It Wise to Leave a Church Disappointed?

Disappointment is not rebellion it’s a signal.
It tells you something sacred was expected, but something painful was experienced. Wisdom doesn’t rush out of pain—it listens to it.

Leaving isn’t always the problem. Leaving without clarity is.
Before you walk away, ask:

• Am I leaving a place—or escaping a process or problem?
• Is this disappointment a divine disruption or personal discomfort?
• Have I voiced the ache, or just swallowed it?

Sometimes God allows disappointment to unseat you from comfort so He can replant you in purpose.
But other times, He calls you to stay—not to suffer, but to shift the atmosphere. To be the healing you hoped to receive.

Wisdom is not in staying or leaving—it’s in discerning the assignment.
If your presence there is no longer prophetic, if your spirit is shrinking, if your gifts are silenced, it may be time to go.
But if your leaving is premature, you may miss the oil that only crushing produces. Praying for you.”
― Dr. Angela L Hood
