God's wisdom is not, and never was, pledged to keep a fallen world happy, or to make ungodliness comfortable.

I need not torment myself with the fear that my faith may fail; as grace led me to faith in the first place, so grace will keep me believing to the end. Faith, both in its origin and continuance, is a gift of grace (Phil 1:29).

The incarnation is in itself an unfathomable mystery, but it makes sense of everything else that the New Testament contains.

The truth is that, though we were justified by faith alone, the faith that justifies is never alone (it always produces fruit, 'good works,'...a transformed life).

There is unspeakable comfort in knowing that God is constantly taking knowledge of me in love and watching over me for my good.
