There are no labels of limitation or material identity attached to anyone that cannot be removed by divine Love.

Steadfast prayer and a transformed relationship

Adrienne Thomas

A little while ago I bought some pretty china bowls. Removing the sticky labels attached to each bowl seemed impossible, until I soaked the bowls in soapy water. Immersion in the warm suds gently loosened the adhesive, and then it was much easier to remove the labels. 

How often we mentally affix labels to ourselves and others, and how hard it is to remove those labels once they become attached in thought! Worse still, the individual on whom the label has been imposed may accept this unwelcome sticker as part of their identity and find it difficult to break free—may even believe the label is something they are permanently stuck with.
