All the money needed to send and support an army of self-sacrificing, joy-spreading ambassadors is already in the church.
John PiperIn EVERY situation and EVERY circumstance of your life, God is always doing a thousand different things that you cannot see and you do not know.
John PiperWe make a god out of whatever we find most joy in. So find your joy in God and be done with all idolatry.
John PiperDarkness comes. In the middle of it, the future looks blank. The temptation to quit is huge. Don't. You are in good company... You will argue with yourself that there is no way forward. But with God, nothing is impossible. He has more ropes and ladders and tunnels out of pits than you can conceive. Wait. Pray without ceasing. Hope.
