“Many people today believe that cynicism requires courage. Actually, cynicism is the height of cowardice. It is innocence and open-heartedness that requires the true courage– however often we are hurt as a result of it.” –Erica Jong, I've met many people who say they will never go back to a church because someone from the church hurt them once. Is that not the most illogical thing we could do--let our life be ruled and perhaps miss our calling because one person hurt us? Life is full of pain and people mistreat people, sometimes without even knowing it, but if we are ruled by our past hurts we can never know the Lord as Lord, because our wounds are ruling us, not Him.
