Perhaps there is supranatural: reason beyond the normal definitions of fact or data-based logic something that only makes sense if you can see a bigger picture of reality. Maybe that is where faith fits in.

More quotes by William P. Young
mistakes are a part of life, and Papa works her purpose in them too.
William P. Young
...if anything matters then everything matters. Because you are important, everything you do is important. Every time you forgive, the universe changes every time you reach out and touch a heart or a life, the world changes with every kindness and service, seen or unseen, my purposes are accomplished and nothing will be the same again.
William P. Young
It is not the nature of love to force a relationship, but it is the nature of love to open the way.
William P. Young
I don't need to punish people for sin. Sin is its own punishment, devouring you from the inside. It's not my purpose to punish it it's my joy to cure it.
William P. Young
I believe that, that Christ became sin for us.
William P. Young
Pain has a way of clipping our wings and keeping us from being able to fly.
William P. Young
when I live in you, then together we can live through everything that happens to you.
William P. Young
God's voice had been reduced to paper, and even that paper had to be moderated and deciphered by the proper authorities and intellect.
William P. Young
Truth will set you free. And Truth has a name.
William P. Young
I'm not an actual author but an accidental one.
William P. Young
Nothing in life is ritual.
William P. Young
We've created a theology in the West of a God who is fundamentally self-centered. The imagery of God as distant, unapproachable, unreachable -- that's not a God who is relational. It is a God that gets to declare or judge when he gets pissed off. But there is no basis for love and relationships if God is a fundamentally self-centered being.
William P. Young
Part of my journey is to say that the soul of the human being must be a massively intricate, wonderful creation that God has a respect for in ways that we do not and that leaves a huge amount of space to go explore.
William P. Young
Emotions are the colors of the soul.
William P. Young
All I want from you is to trust me with what little you can, and grow in loving people around you with the same love I share with you. It's not your job to change them, or to convince them. You are free to love without an agenda.
William P. Young
I make a distinction between true and real. I think that the story is true, it’s just not real. That’s what a parable is. It takes things that we all know are real, and it takes life events that actually happens, and it weaves them into a fiction that allows truth to actually be embedded.
William P. Young
You cannot heal yourself. You cannot heal anybody else. We're designed to do this in community because we were created inside community for community by community.
William P. Young
The ability to choose is at the essential core of our grandeur. Even evil exists because God respects our ability to choose.
William P. Young
True love never forces.
William P. Young
Responsibilites and expectations are the basis of guilt and shame and judgement, and they provide the essential framework that promotes performance as the basis for identity and value.
William P. Young
