Our best works are shot through with sin and contain something for which we need to be forgiven.
J. I. PackerTrying to describe what I do in prayer would be like telling the world how I make love to my wife.
J. I. PackerKnowing about God is crucially important for the living of our lives... Disregard the study of God, and you sentence yourself to stumble and blunder through life blindfolded, as it were, with no sense of direction and no understanding of what surrounds you. This way you can waste your life and lose your soul.
J. I. Packer
