"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." (p. 100)
What do you think this means...?

I think this is an amazing quote!!!
When I first read it, it helped me a lot!
my biggest problem always was to think about how I didn't deserve to be loved... because my flaws, my faults, my sins etc...
but reading The Shack thought me that I will NEVER be able to "deserve" it... I already have the right to be loved because Papa, Jesus ans Sarayu loved me in first place.
No matter how badly I lead my life, they'll keep loving me because of THEY are amazing, not because I did something good enough...
and I was suprise how this "you're not enough" idea HELPED me!!! LOL
I stopped pussing myself onto edges I used to trying to prove myself... Now, I understand that I don't need to do anything to make God loves me... All I have to do is let him love me, love him back and let this love spread around me, and ahsre it with everyone else...
