quotes from "Soaring Above The Flames (The Flame Series Book 1)" by Ann Ansah-Grant
"Those who do not have faith blame God or doubt his existence in times of suffering. Those who have faith cling to the Lord even tighter, knowing He is already in the future removing the barriers, clearing a path towards a greater purpose for their pain.”"
"Colossians 3:13 appeared—“Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.” Forgiving her did not make me weak. Rather, my obedience to God as it relates to forgiveness made me powerful because it meant I was more like Him. The burden of lack of forgiveness makes one spiritually sick. It pollutes the spiritual environment and makes it less conducive to the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. As human beings, we are incapable of forgetting our experiences because God provides us with a memory. Our emotional reaction to those memories is a measure of whether we have truly forgiven those who have wronged us."
I made a conscious choice that day to embark on a journey of forgiveness. When those past memories visit me and they no longer arrive with heavy baggage full of anger, resentment and pain, I will know that I have arrived at the destination.
Quotes and ideas from "Walking through the Flames"
Love comes in the shape of a heart not a fist.And it is not expressed with insults or threats. Loving lips are not capable of forming profane words to use as a weapon against you.
Love doesn't make you feel ashamed or ugly.
"I made so many mistakes and now I have to own them."
If God wanted us to Own our mistakes, He wouldn't have paid for them on the cross! He took ownership of the sins you committed before they even came to pass. Don't Own your sins, repent of them! Cry out to the Lord with a broken and contrite heart and ask for His forgiveness. Then release it and sin no more. Micah 7:19 He will turn again, He will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea
The Lord is waiting with anticipation to forgive us.
