Trying to obey and serve God before we've come to love Him can be exhausting.

Time doesn't heal anything... only God can heal

It is not about never doubting, it is about coming out on the other side with twice the faith you had going into your doubt.

We must be careful to avoid spiritual elitism. Everything we are and anything we possess as believers in Christ is a gift of grace. Pure hearts before God must be cleansed from any hint of spiritual pride.

God's desire is not for us to turn our churches and Christian gatherings into hideouts from the world. Rather, they're meant to be places where we become equipped and fortified to minister out in the world.

God doesn’t work on sense; He works on grace. God called you, and God called me. He knew what He was doing.

Be careful not to give too much credence to the old adage that time heals. Mark my word. It's God that heals. Time only tells.
