The marquee scrolling across our minds trying to reinterpret life reads: "God-Against-Us." This becomes the dominant lens through which our flesh interprets life. We no longer give our loving Father the benefit of the doubt. Instead, we view every event as conclusive proof that God is against us.

What you hope for determines what you live for. What you hope for determines WHO you live for. Hope misplaced can devastate you.

When God promises, He's not saying, I'll try. He means, I can and I will.

The day you stop loving your people, they're not your people anymore.

God owns the truth. The issue is our ability to derive truth apart from God's sufficient Word.

I experience transcendence when something infinite reminds me I am finite.

God looked through eternity past and He saw you and He chose to reach out and redeem you by His own grace. It's hard to imagine that kind of love.
