An intimate encounter with Jesus is the most transforming experience of human existence. To know him as he is, is to come home. To have his life, joy, love, and presence cannot be compared. A true knowledge of Jesus is our greatest need and our greatest happiness.
John EldredgeYou would not ask someone with a broken arm to swim the English Channel, so you cannot demand that the broken to live as if they were whole.
John EldredgeEvery man carries a wound. I have never met a man without one. No matter how good your life may have seemed to you, you live in a broken world full of broken people.
John EldredgeWe are made in the image of God; we carry within us the desire for our true life of intimacy and adventure. To say we want less than that is to lie.
John EldredgeTo find God, you must look with all your heart. To remain present to God, you must remain present to your heart. To hear his voice, you must listen with all your heart. To love him, you must love with all your heart. You cannot be the person God meant you to be, and you cannot live the life he meant you to live, unless you live from the heart.
