Extravagant love is never wasted.
We won't be distracted by comparison if we're captivated with purpose.
God doesn't break things so He can fix them; He fixes broken things so He can use them.
I used to think JESUS motivated us with ultimatums, but now I know He pursues us in LOVE.
No book is a chapter, no chapter tells the whole story, no mistake defines who we are. Hope makes our lives page turners.
But the kind of love that God created and demonstrated is a costly one because it involves sacrifice and presence. It's a love that operates more like a sign language than being spoken outright.
