Immaculee Ilibagiza Quotes

• ...I came to realize that God never shows us something we aren't ready to understand. Instead, He lets us see what we need to see, when we need to see it. He'll wait until our eyes and hearts are open to Him, and then when we're ready. He will plant our feet on the path that's best for us. . . but it's up to us to do the walking.

I would always turn immediately to the Source of all true power: I would turn to God and let His love and forgiveness protect and save me.
