Feeling loved by God means feeling glad not only that He crushed His Son so that I can be forgiven, but that He's crushing everything that takes away from my praising of the glory of His grace.
John PiperEvery good thing in the Christian life grows in the soil of humility. Without humility, every virtue and every grace withers. Thatโs why Calvin said humility is first, second, and third in the Christian faith.
John PiperDo all things without grumbling. Why? You have a sovereign God who is on your side, who works everything together for your good.
John Piper
