Receiver Quotes (page 31)

Often men who have been emotionally neglected and abused as children by dominating mothers bond with assertive women, only to have their childhood feelings of being engulfed surface. While they could not 'smash their mommy' and still receive love, they find that they can engage in intimate violence with partners who respond to their acting out by trying harder to connect with them emotionally, hoping that the love offered in the present will heal the wounds of the past. If only one party in... Bell Hooks
Sabbath is a way of life (Heb 4:3; 9-11). It is simply "casting all your anxiety on Him," to find that in actual fact " He cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7). It is USING the keys to the Kingdom to receive the resources for abundant living and ministering. Dallas Willard
I receive your love and I give you mine. Not the love of a man for a woman, not the love of a father for a child, not the love of God for his creatures. But a love with no name and no explanation like a river that cannot explain why it follows a particular course, but simply flows onwards. A love that asks for nothing and gives nothing in return; it is simply there. I will never be yours and you will never be mine; nevertheless, I can honestly say: I love you Paulo Coelho
I had a keen delight in receiving the new ideas he offered, in imagining the new pictures he portrayed, and following him in thought through the new regions he disclosed, never startled or troubled by one noxious allusion. Charlotte Bronte
Continue for the present to write to me by every opportunity: I may receive your letters on some occasions when I need them most to support my spirits. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
Ingratitude is amongst them a capital crime, as we read it to have been in some other countries: for they reason thus; that whoever makes ill-returns to his benefactor, must needs be a common enemy to the rest of the mankind, from where he has received no obligations and therefore such man is not fit to live. Jonathan Swift
Just as Christians should not be constantly feeling the pulse of their spiritual life, so too the Christian community has not been given to us by God for us to be continually taking its temperature. The more thankfully we daily receive what is given to us, the more assuredly and consistently will community increase and grow from day to day as God pleases Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Friends--or lovers--are not always available to each other. Inner turmoils can cause us to be unhearing when someone needs us, to need to receive understanding when we should be giving understanding. Madeleine L'Engle

All knowledge that the world has ever received comes from the mind; the infinite library of the universe is in our own mind. Swami Vivekananda
Herman Hesse quote: "Love can be begged, bought, or received as a gift, one can..."
Love can be begged, bought, or received as a gift, one can find it in the street, but one cannot steal it. Herman Hesse
Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get? only what you are expecting to give? which is everything. What you will receive in return varies. But it really has no connection with what you give. You give because you love and cannot help giving. Katharine Hepburn
Lavish love on others receive it gratefully when it come to you. Cultivate friendship like a garden. It is the best love of all. Helen Prejean
Christian community is like the Christian's sanctification. It is a gift of God which we cannot claim. Only God knows the real state of our fellowship, of our sanctification. What may appear weak and trifling to us may be great and glorious to God. Just as the Christian should not be constantly feeling his spiritual pulse, so, too, the Christian community has not been given to us by God for us to be constantly taking its temperature. The more thankfully we daily receive what is given to us,... Dietrich Bonhoeffer
In a culture that is becoming ever more story-stupid, in which a representative of the Coca-Cola company can, with a straight face, pronounce, as he donates a collection of archival Coca-Cola commercials to the Library of Congress, that 'Coca-Cola has become an integral part of people's lives by helping to tell these stories,' it is perhaps not surprising that people have trouble teaching and receiving a novel as complex and flawed as Huck Finn, but it is even more urgent that we learn to... George Saunders
Jesus tends to his people individually. He personally sees to our needs. We all receive Jesus' touch. We experience his care. Max Lucado
