The sin of the desert is knowing where the water is and not sharing it.
Richard Paul Evans
It is better to be loved by one person who knows your soul than millions who don't even know your phone number.
Richard Paul Evans
If God came to save the world, why are so many of His professed followers intent on damning it?
Richard Paul Evans
Forgiveness does not require us to close our eyes but rather to truly open them.
Richard Paul Evans

Richard Paul Evans
We're all moons. Sometimes our dark sides overshadow our light.
Richard Paul Evans
