Quotes from The Shack
Living unloved is like clipping a bird's wings and removing its ability to fly. Not something I want for you. Mack, pain has a way of clipping our wings and keeping us from being able to fly. And if left unresolved for very long, you can almost forget that you were ever created to fly in the first place. -Papa (from The Shake by William P. Young ; page 96)
A bird's not defined by being grounded but by his ability to fly. Remember this, humans are not defined by their limitations, but by the intentions that I have for them; not by what they seem to be, but by everything it means to be created in my image. -Papa (from The Shack by William P. Young ; page 99)
It's one reason why experiencing true relationship is so difficult for you. Once you have a hierarchy you need rules to protect and administerit, and then you need law and the enforcment of the rules, and you end up with some kind of chain of command or a system of order that destroys relationship rather than promotes it. You rarely see or experience relationship apart from power. Hierarchy imposes laws and rules and you end up missing the wonder of relationship that we intended for you. - Jesus (from The Shack by William P. Young ; page 122)
