Apart from God nothing matters. We think that health matters, that freedom matters, or knowledge or art or civilization. And but for one insistent word they would matter indeed. That word is eternity.

Real faith never disappoints because it is in God, grounded on His character, promises, covenant and oath.

Secularism, materialism, and the intrusive presence of things have put out the light in our souls and turned us into a generation of zombies.

Sometimes when we get overwhelmed we forget how big God is.

As Christians, we are not to be people without feelings.

What else should we do with the Word of God but obey?

The way to deeper knowledge of God is through the lonely valleys of soul poverty and abnegation of all things. The blessed ones who possess the Kingdom are they who have repudiated every external thing and have rooted from their hearts all sense of possessing. These are the 'poor in spirit.'
