I never said the way of Christ is easy. Are you prepared to let go of everything He would not approve?

In conversion you are not attached primarily to an order, nor to an institution, nor a movement, nor a set of beliefs, nor a code of action - you are attached primarily to a Person, and secondarily to these other things.

Earth's blackest day and earth's brightest day are only three days apart.

You cease to move into yourself, away from others. You give up your antagonism. You begin to move toward others in love. God moved toward you in gracious, outgoing love, and you move toward others in that same outgoing love.

The God I find in Christ is a God who overcomes evil with good, hate by love, and the world by a cross.

Recognize negativism and inferiority attitudes as enemies - do not try to dress them as your friends. you will be tempted to look upon negativism as prudence and inferiorities as humility.
