God specifically created us to be like Him. This is impossible to wrap our minds around, but God created us like Him in some respect and then set us in the midst of this world to represent Him!

We have a God who is a Creator, not a duplicator.

When it's hard and you are doubtful, give more.

God is love, but He also defines what love is. We don't have the license to define love according to our standards.

The greatest knowledge we can ever have is knowing God treasures us.

It struck me that many Christians flash around their 'no trans fat' label, trying to convince everyone they are healthy and good. Yet they have no substantive or healthful elements to their faith. It's like the Laodiceans, who thought they had everything until Christ told them they were poor and wretched.

Salvation is all about the grace of God. There is absolutely nothing that you can do to save yourself or earn God's favor.
