He heals by working through doctors, nurses, and others whom He has gifted, equipped, and called to the medical professions.

• No individual can be in full control of his fate-our strengths come significantly from our history, our experiences largely from the vagaries of chance. But by seizing the opportunity to leverage and frame these experiences, we gain agency over them. And this heightened agency, in turn, places us in a stronger position to deal with future experiences, even as it may alter our own sense of strengths and possibilities.

The whole point of anything that is really, truly valuable to your soul, and your own growth, is not to attach to a teacher, but rather to find out what the real deal is in the world itself.

I find all of them constrictive. They're hard to wear. And they're hard to wear because we're always - hopefully - growing.
