Anger is the right response to something that is so wrong. But don't let the anger and pain and loss you feel prevent you from forgiving him and removing your hands from around his neck.

More quotes by William P. Young
Emotions talked to you before you had words, so listen to them ... they are often more honest than the mind's remarkable ability to self deceive.
William P. Young
It wasn't long ago I was cleaning toilets and now I have protestors. How cool is this?
William P. Young
Love is much stronger than your fault could ever be.
William P. Young
Because you continue to inhabit and believe your metaphors, you cannot see what is true.

Jesus picked up the conversation. As the crowning glory of creation, you were made in Our image, unencumbered by structure and free to simply 'be' in relationship with Me and one another. If you had trully learned to regard one another's concerns as significant as your own, there would be no need for hierarchy.

William P. Young
You don't play a game or color a picture with a child to show your superiority. Rather, you choose to limit yourself so as to facilitate and honor that relationship.
William P. Young
The arrival of the unforeseen reveals the depths of one's heart.
William P. Young
I'm an accidental writer.
William P. Young
Transformation without work and pain, without suffering, without a sense of loss is just an illusion of true change.
William P. Young
Forgiveness in no way requires that you trust the one you forgive.
William P. Young

William P. Young
I'm trying to get far away from [picturing God as] Gandalf or Santa Claus.
William P. Young
Grace doesn't depend on suffering to exist, but where there is suffering you will find grace in many facets and colors.
William P. Young
I think people are tired of religion and how it divides and damages people. You can name it whatever you want, Islam or Christianity, but if you have a system in which God is distant and angry all the time, and you're trying to please him through the right disciplines, it isn't going to work for everyone.
