Do you want to see God more than you desire security?

This could all end at any moment...Therefore, be self-controlled.

Lukewarm people do not live by faith; their lives are structured so that they don't have to.

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!

It is true that God may have called you to be exactly where you are. But, it is absolutely vital to grasp that he didn’t call you there so you could settle in and live your life in comfort and superficial peace.
