More quotes by William P. Young
Emotions are the colors of the soul.
William P. Young
I often find that getting head issues out of the way first makes the heart stuff easier to work on later.
William P. Young
Women, in general, will find it difficult to turn from a man and stop demanding that he meets their needs, provides security, and protects their identity, and return to me. Men, in general, find it very hard to turn from the works of their hands, their own quests for power and security and significance, and turn to me.
William P. Young
Because you continue to inhabit and believe your metaphors, you cannot see what is true.
William P. Young
Look at us human beings: it's so much easier to be right than to love.
William P. Young
It wasn't long ago I was cleaning toilets and now I have protestors. How cool is this?
William P. Young
Jesus? he whispered as his voice choked I feel so lost A hand reached out and squeezed his, and didn't let go. I know Mack. But it's not true. I am with you and I'm not lost. I'm sorry it feels that way, but hear me clearly. You are not lost.
William P. Young
I had a very angry father and was disconnected from my family.
William P. Young
Love is much stronger than your fault could ever be.
William P. Young
...humans are not defined by their limitations, but by the intentions that I have for them not by what they seem to be, but by everything it means to be created in my image.
William P. Young
Submission is not about authority and it is not obedience it is all about relationships of love and respect.
William P. Young
I have moments that aren't too bad, but there's always something I'm struggling with, or feeling guilty about. I just figured I needed to try harder, but I find it difficult to sustain that motivation.
William P. Young
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.
William P. Young
The 'will to power and independence' has become so ubiquitous that it is now considered normal.
William P. Young
Sin is its own punishment, devouring you from the inside.
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
Forgiveness in no way requires that you trust the one you forgive.
William P. Young
Love is not the limitation love is the flying.
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.
William P. Young
Even though you can't finally grasp me, guess what? I still want to be known.
William P. Young
