Loathing Will Numb Us

We must pray "Search me & know me" more than "Convince & convict them."  To loathe our enemy more than we look at our brokenness will numb us to grace & deaden our hearts.  An unexamined heart rarely leads to life & healing. In the pursuit of justice, submit your life. Go first.

-- Ashlee Eiland

Unless we find concrete ways to weep over the brokenness, we will use the brokenness to break others. And ourselves. 

-- Aaron Niequist

...you cannot heal what you do not acknowledge; and what you do not consciously acknowledge will remain in control of you from within, harming you and those around you, particularly those you love. 

-- Richard Rohr

Humiliation is the way to humility. 

-- Thomas Keating

So confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, and this will cure you. 

-- James 5:16
