Contents Intro; Title Page; Foreword; Acknowledgments; Introduction; Chapter 1: "Not Lewis" Quotations; 1.1 "Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny."; 1.2 "You doubt your value, don't run from who you are."; 1.3 "To defeat the darkness out there, you must defeat the darkness in yourself."; 1.4 "We read to know/discover that we are not alone."; 1.5 "Experience that most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God do you learn."
1.6 "I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time-waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God-it changes me."1.7 "Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less."; 1.8 "You are never too old to set another goal or dream a new dream."; 1.9 "You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body."; 1.10 "I would rather be what God chose to make me than the most perfect person that I can think of
For to have been thought about, born in God's thought, and then made by God, is the dearest, grandest, and most precious thing ever."1.11 "The next moment is as much beyond our grasp, and as much in God's care as that a hundred years away. Care for the next minute is just as foolish as care for a day in the next thousand years. And neither can we do anything, and both God is doing everything."; 1.12 "Children are not a distraction from more important work. They are the most important work."; 1.13 "It's not the load that breaks you down. It's the way you carry it."
1.14 "Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars-let go to move forward."1.15 "Integrity is doing the right thing, even when no one is watching."; 1.16 "It is a happy moment when our desire crosses with the will of Heavenly Father."; 1.17 "Don't shine so others can see you. Shine so that through you, others can see Him."; 1.18 "A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words."; 1.19 "Be weird. Be random. Be who you are. Because you never know who would love the person you hide."
1.20 "My prayer is that when I die, all of hell rejoices that I am out of the fight."1.21 "In hell they talk a lot about love. In heaven they just do it."; 1.22 "Be sure that the patient remains completely fixated on politics."; 1.23 "Isn't it funny how day by day nothing changes, but when you look back, everything is different."; 1.24 "God always hears the cry of suffering, God always sees the oppression of the week [sic], & God demands we be a people who do the same."
