There is such a love, a love that creates value in what is loved. There is a love that turns rag dolls into priceless treasures. There is a love that fastens itself onto ragged little creatures, for reasons that no one could ever quite figure out, and makes them precious and valued beyond calculation. This is love beyond reason. This is the love of God.
John OrtbergNever try to have more faith - just get to know God better. And because God is faithful, the better you know Him, the more you'll trust Him.
John OrtbergThe Holy Spirit will lead you to be with people as Jesus would be with them if He were in your place.
John OrtbergEverybody wears an unseen sign that reads: Inspire me. Remind me that my life matters; call me to be my best self; appeal to whatever in me is most noble and honorable. Don't let me go down the path of least resistance. Challenge me to make my life about something more than the acquisition of money or success
