Quotes by Dani Pettrey  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“It's your job to tell others about Jesus, about what He's done in your life and what He can do in theirs, but you can never make someone believe, no matter how strong or pure your intentions. Salvation is between that person and God,' Piper said.”
Dani Pettrey, Stranded

“Because God doesn't promise the way will be easy-far from it-but He promises to carry us through, to give us the courage and grace we need when we need it. He most often doesn't change the circumstances; He changes us”
Dani Pettrey, Silenced

“You’re a new creation. Your sins are forgiven. Why carry a burden Christ died to relieve you of?”
Dani Pettrey, Submerged

Dani Pettrey Aw, that's so sweet of you. Hope it works out :)


message 1: by Dani

Dani Pettrey That's too bad, Danie. You can always ask your librarian to order Submerged. Sometimes when you request a book, they'll get it in :)
