Quotes for Helaman 5-7
Nancy Baird
"Forgiving people, acting kindly toward them, doesn't necessarily mean letting them abuse us. Sometimes relationships have to be severed to keep one of the parties from being destroyed. In Nephi's case, in fact, the Lord finally took him out of Laman and Lemuel's presence. (2 Nephi 5).
Catherine Thomas, "The Book of Mormon, Scripture Reading and Personal Revelation"
"Taking refuge does not mean hiding from life. It means finding a place of strength, the capacity to live the life we have been given with greater courage and sometimes even with gratititude."
Rachel Naomi Remen M.D., My Grandfather's Blessings, 165.
