God actually delights in exalting our inability. He intentionally puts his people in situations where they come face to face with their need for him.

God's ultimate concern is not to get you or me from point A to point B along the quickest, easiest, smoothest, clearest route possible. Instead, his ultimate concern is that you and I would know him deeply as we trust him more completely.

Orphans are easier to ignore before you know their names; but once you know, everything changes.

We don't have stomachs for the things of this world because we have feasted on the goodness of our God.

It is impossible to be a follower of Christ while denying, disregarding, discrediting, and disbelieving the words of Christ.

To be a Christian is to realize that in your sin, you were separated from God's presence, and you deserved nothing but God's wrath.

We live in a church culture that has a dangerous tendency to disconnect the grace of God from the glory of God.
