E. Stanley JonesGrace binds you with far stronger cords than the cords of duty or obligation can bind you. Grace is free, but when once you take it, you are bound forever to the Giver and bound to catch the spirit of the Giver. Like produces like. Grace makes you gracious, the Giver makes you give.
E. Stanley JonesMany live in dread of what is coming. Why should we? The unknown puts adventure into life. ... The unexpected around the corner gives a sense of anticipation and surprise. Thank God for the unknown future.
E. Stanley JonesAt the cross God wrapped his heart in flesh and blood and let it be nailed to the cross for our redemption.
E. Stanley JonesWhen we say we begin with God, we begin with our idea of God, and our idea of God is not God. Instead, we ought to begin with Godโs idea of God, and Godโs idea of God is Christ
E. Stanley JonesI see that I am inwardly fashioned for faith and not for fear. Fear is not my native land; faith is. I am so made that worry and anxiety are sand in the machinery of life; faith is oil. I live better by faith and confidence than by fear and doubt and anxiety. In anxiety and worry my being is gasping for breath - these are not my native air. But in faith and confidence I breath freely - these are my native air.
