Quotable Sunday 4/12/09

Happy Easter! What a glorious day this is to celebrate, the day Jesus rose from the grave after giving his life so we could all be forgiven. I wasn’t really sure if I was going to do Easter quotes or Forgiveness quotes and I decided to do both! Before I get to my quotes of course the rules for newbies:
~Post your fave quotes as a new post on your blog.
~Come back here and link it in the Mr. Linky below.
~Check back through the day and visit all the other quoters.

Now onto my quotes for today, as state they center around both Easter and forgiveness because to me the two intertwine.

The resurrection gives my life meaning and direction and the opportunity to start over no matter what my circumstances. ~Robert Flatt

Easter is the demonstration of God that life is essentially spiritual and timeless. ~Charles M. Crowe

We live and die, Christ died and lived. ~John Stott

Our Lord has written the promise of resurrection not in books alone, but in every leaf in spring-time. ~Martin Luther

Now onto the forgiveness quotes, after all that is why Jesus died on the cross so that we may all be forgiven, therefore what right do we have that we should not forgive others:

To understand everything is to forgive everything. ~Buddha

I’ve learned that no matter how good a friend is, they’re going to hurt you every once in awhile and you must forgive them for that. ~Unknown

Most of us can forgive and forget, we just don’t want the person we forgave to forget that we did. ~Ivern Ball

Strength of character means the ability to overcome resentment against others, to hide hurt feelings and to forgive quickly. ~Unknown

Forgiveness is the key to action and freedom. ~Hannah Arendt

Forgiveness is a funny thing. It warms the heart and cools the sting. ~William Arthur Ward


Those are my quotes this Easter Sunday. I hope you all have a very blessed Easter!

    ACK! I just realized I signed Mr. Linky and went around blog-hopping to other quotable participants in between Princess Nagger activities, and I forgot to leave a comment on your blog, THE reason for QS! 🙂

    LOVED your quotes as usual, Toni! 🙂 Great choices – my favorite is:

    To understand everything is to forgive everything. ~Buddha

    Hope you are having a WONDERFUL Easter!! 🙂
