Quote by Michael J Heil

“In moments of compromise and failure, my positive affirmations flip-flopped around in my mind like fish out of the water. In those moments, I could not remain positive, so the affirmations I tried to persuade myself with were empty and misleading more than anything else. In some moments, if I were to force myself to be positive, I would be lying to myself. I would be neglecting reality. Life wasn’t always good, and I wasn’t always happy. Was something wrong with me because of that fact, or is that just how life is? Positive psychology was good, but it was not enough.”

“After that first night, I expected not to see them again, as the campus was massive, and none of us had the same major. None of us lived near one another and all of us were in different grades. Yet, everywhere I went, I kept running into these same three individuals. Even though there were well over 30,000 students on campus, these same three popped up everywhere I went. At first, it seemed like an uncanny coincidence. My whole life had been void of these types of caricatures, now they were everywhere. In reality, God was pursuing me; He refused to let me slip through the cracks.”

“To be known wholly and completely by the Creator of all things; to face the reality that He sees our every thought, deed, and idle word, and still wants us and He is willing to look past who we are and what we’ve done, and die for us, to be valued like this is the greatest feat in life. This promise is not only for those who have gotten their act together, but for any willing to trust in Him.”
