“I’d been so used to the court system and thinking of myself as a criminal. I’d been so used to pleading in abeyance, proclaiming my guilt and unworthiness and asking the judge for mercy. But God’s love went beyond anything I’d seen in my lifetime. He wasn’t just giving me mercy by overlooking my sins, He was giving me justice by paying off every debt I’d ever created and bearing every damnation I’d ever deserved.”

“Our humanity possesses needs of such depth and intensity that the whole of our humanity itself is woefully inadequate in its ability to meet those needs. And while such an amazing paradox would readily invite us to embrace the notion that something greater than us exists, we adamantly ignore any such possibility.

And I would suggest that Christmas was the time that God came so that every grave would remain empty because every need would be met.”

“After having endured so much suffering and poverty, and being on the edge of the grave.

How clearly I saw now that God watched over me, and learned from this that he is often closest to us with his mercy when we suppose that he has his turned his face from us. Oh! Never grumble against God when disaster strikes you. Rather, wait patiently, believe, hope, and trust in him!”

“In either case, there was very much the same solemnity of demeanor on the part of the spectators; as befitted a people amongst whom religion and law were almost identical, and in whose character both were so thoroughly interfused, that the mildest and the severest acts of public discipline were alike made venerable and awful. Meagre, indeed, and cold was the sympathy that a transgressor might look for, from such bystanders, at the scaffold.”
