Quote by John Sandford

“As an individual with my own hurts, I go into the Garden (Gethsemane) as often as I need to. There I identify with the pain in the other, with my part in that pain, my part in tempting someone to wound me.

Feeling such anguish, I can forgive, or deeply repent, either for myself or on behalf of the other.”

I didn't doubt them a bit. There's some country people that I wouldn't want, which didn't record with me.”
