The highest mental health is not liking myself but being joyfully interested in everything but myself.

When the heart no longer feels the truth of hell, the gospel passes from good news to simply news

I recall hearing one of my professors in seminary say that one of the best tests of a person's theology was the effect it has on one's prayers.

When GOD is our deepest pleasure we display Him as our highest treasure.

Every Christian who struggles with depression struggles to keep their hope clear. There is nothing wrong with the object of their hope - Jesus Christ is not defective in any way whatsoever. But the view from the struggling Christian's heart of their objective hope could be obscured by disease and pain, the pressures of life, and by Satanic fiery darts shot against them... All discouragement and depression is related to the obscuring of our hope, and we need to get those clouds out of the way and fight like crazy to see clearly how precious Christ is.

When I pray for revival I pray first for the most radical thing: The utter devotion and allegiance of your hearts to Christ. That you would love Him so deeply and long for Him so passionately that His coming would be your great hope, and death would be gain, and life would be for Christ and His kingdom.

The most dangerous thing in the world is the sin of self-reliance and the stupor of worldliness.
