Wise people build their lives around what is eternal and squeeze in what is temporary. Not the other way around.

Every day you and I walk through God's shop. Every day we brush up against objects of incalculable worth to Him. People. Every one of them carries a price tag, if only we could see it.

God is not interested in our spiritual life. He's interested in our life.

God wishes to be seen, wishes to be sought, wishes to be expected, and wishes to be trusted.

The character of the faith that allows us to be transformed by suffering and darkness is not doubt-free certainty; rather, it is tenacious obedience.

Imagine watching all that God might have done with your life if you had let him.

Sheldon Vanauken wrote that the strongest argument for Christianity is Christians, when they are drawing life from God. The strongest argument against Christianity? Also Christians, when they become exclusive, self-righteous, and complacent.
