Quote by Ashley Williams

“no matter what you feel in your heart, no matter what situation you’re put through, you can’t make exceptions for God’s Word. If Jesus tells us to forgive, we forgive. He never tells us to trust that person again or make ourselves vulnerable to their attacks. He only tells us to forgive.” quote by Ashley Williams
