God is not a killjoy; he just opposes what kills joy.

Homosexual behavior has been exploited, and reveled in, and celebrated in art, for millennia.

When you see Jesus as your Treasure, the Spirit has blown through your heart.

Gratitude is the joy that arises in response to God’s good will toward us in all his gifts.

Our obedience is God's pleasure when it proves that God is our treasure. This is good news, because it means very simply that the command to obey is the command to be happy in God. The commandments of God are only as hard to obey as the promises of God are hard to believe. The Word of God is only as hard to obey as the beauty of God is hard to cherish.

God doesn’t waste anything for those who are yielded to him.

I will not waste my life! I will finish my course and finish it well. I will display the Gospel of the grace of God in all I do. I will run my race to the end.” - Paul
