Quote by Rebecca David

“I forgive you. But just because I forgive you doesn't mean I want to continue to be your friend. It doesn't even mean I respect you as a man because you are not. You are a miserably scared little boy who can't tell when to let go and when to hold on. You will never be worth my time nor my friendship.”

“Because…” Gabriel closed his eyes to his truth. Because the premise that a child must be threatened with harm to earn God’s blessing is no longer acceptable to me; because that smug face cannot be the face of my God; because a rejecting and shaming God is a God of men created by men to serve the agendas of men; because I couldn’t find any stained glass window maker who is able to capture the face of the God I want to see—the God of hope, of compassion, of acceptance.”

“After a Time After a time, all losses are the same. One more thing lost is one thing less to lose; And we go stripped at last the way we came. Though we shall probe, time and again, our shame, Who lack the wit to keep or to refuse, After a time, all losses are the same. No wit, no luck can beat a losing game; Good fortune is a reassuring ruse: And we go stripped at last the way we came. Rage as we will for what we think to claim, Nothing so much as this bare thought subdues: After a time, all losses are the same. The sense of treachery--the want, the blame-- Goes in the end, whether or not we choose, And we go stripped at last the way we came. So we, who would go raging, will go tame When what we have we can no longer use: After a time, all losses are the same; And we go stripped at last the way we came.”

“I believe that our ability to worship God, to reaffirm our covenants and receive the healing power of the Holy Ghost, to receive the instruction we need in order to make personal progress - all of these things are greatly affected by how secure and safe we feel in our Church environment during the three-hour block of time on Sundays. If we have to spend our energy dealing with feelings that we are not accepted, being concerned about our appearance, or worrying that what we do or say will be judged harshly, in other words that the fellowship of our ward members is anything but "fixed, immovable, and unchangeable", we certainly won't be able to make the kind of progress we could make otherwise.”
