Freedom of mind is the real freedom. A person whose mind is not free though he may not be in chains, is a slave, not a free man.

Freedom of mind is the proof of one's existence.

We are most blessed when we see ourselves as we are seen by [the Savior] and know ourselves as we are known by Him. In this world, we do not really grasp who we are until we know whose we are.

[And, neither should we ever] forget whose we are. We are His.
