The whole world lives for pleasure. The only difference is theirs is fleeting, while ours is forever in Jesus.
John PiperSeek to see and feel the gospel as bigger as years go by rather than smaller. Never let the gospel get smaller in your heart.
John PiperEvery criticism or slight against you, warranted or not, received or endured humbly, is written in heaven for your reward.
John PiperThe highest act of love is the giving of the best gift, and, if necessary, at the greatest cost, to the least deserving. That's what God did. At the loss of His Son's life to the totally undeserving, God gave the best gift - the display of the glory of Christ who is the image of God.
