Quote by Criss Jami

“The core tenet of worldly religion and the pure heart of the Lord Jesus are different in that one is centered around being a good person while the other flows for obedience. While these two roads are bound to intersect at some points, they were never promised to always run parallel (namely when considered through the traditions of men, or those who despise Jesus, or those who do not know and love Jesus).”

But the woman standing before me now, practically vibrating with fury and looking as if she might even yet pull out those knives and slit my throat, was no cowering shadow. She was magnificent.”
