“When you claim victory, you are much more likely to succeed. When you assume failure, you are much more likely to fail. You cannot control what happens, but you can control how you respond to it.

― Andy Traub, The Early To Rise Experience for Moms: Start Waking up to a new Life

“We can embrace our whole life story in the knowledge that we have been graced and made beautiful by the providence of our past history. All the wrong turns in the past, the detours, mistakes, moral lapses, everything that is irrevocably ugly or painful, melts and dissolves in the warm glow of accepted tenderness. As theologian Kevin O’Shea writes, “One rejoices in being unfrightened to be open to the healing presence, no matter what one might be or what one might have done.” —A Glimpse of Jesus”
― Brennan Manning, Dear Abba: Morning and Evening Prayer
