Quotes by Cathe Swanson  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“But God put us in this place, at this time,” Micah said. “It’s our community, and we need to take care of them. They don’t have to justify their pain. We help those who’ve been injured by others and extend grace to people who are in trouble as a result of their own foolish or bad behaviors. We do have to be wise, but we don’t disregard their need.”
Cathe Swanson, Hope for the Holidays

“Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.”
Corrie ten Boom

“If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world.”
C.S. Lewis

“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a
listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all
of which have the potential to turn a life around.”
Leo F. Buscaglia

“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
Maya Angelou

“When I say it's you I like, I'm talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch. That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed.”
Fred Rogers
