God is not harsh; He is holy. He is not selfish; He is sovereign. He is not unfeeling; He is all-knowing. Like David, we need to come to know Him, and respect Him; and, like David, we will love Him more.

The purpose exceeds the pain.

Faith is not believing in my own unshakable belief. Faith is believing an unshakable God when everything in me trembles and quakes.

God is the Deliverer, but we never know how He might deliver us.

God desires that we become spiritually healthy enough through faith to have a conscience that rightly interprets the work of the Holy Spirit.

I want God’s Word to get into our bone marrow and change the way we walk...change what we do...change how we think.

When we detach the Word of God from the heart of God, we miss the point of God.
