Unravel Quotes

“You’ve engaged in battles without even knowing it and God has fought more battles on your behalf than you will ever know this side of Heaven. Throughout your life you have been fighting battles without the proper weapons. We tend to fight our battles with blame, anger, or maybe pride. Sometimes our weapons of choice are alcohol, drugs, sex, food, shopping, or some other vice. Those weapons are designed for self-destruction, not Enemy destruction.”

“The Unravel process is like cleaning out that garage. Before I could park a car in that space, I had to go through everything that was occupying that area and separate out what needed to be kept and what needed to be thrown out. I had to pick up the garden hose and see if it was still usable. I had to go through every box and investigate what was in it. I had to go through all the miscellaneous stuff and decide if I needed it, if it could be donated, or if it should be thrown out. I asked myself why I was keeping some of the things I had piled up. I realized that some of it was being kept out of a sense of loyalty or sentimentality, and some of it was being kept because I was afraid that I might need it and wouldn’t have it.”
