I had to be healed of my desire to be healed.

...we will stand amazed to see the topside of the tapestry and how God beautifully embroidered each circumstance into a pattern for our good and His glory.

The Christian faith is meant to be lived moment by moment. It isn't some broad, general outline--it's a long walk with a real Person. Details count: passing thoughts, small sacrifices, a few encouraging words, little acts of kindness, brief victories over nagging sins.

The truths of the Bible are never just abstract concepts; they're always related to real people.

He has chosen not to heal me, but to hold me. The more intense the pain, the closer His embrace.

Every time we go to sleep, it's a rehearsal of the day when our eyes will ultimately close and we wake up on the side of eternity.

Contentment ... has an internal quietness of heart that gladly submits to God in all circumstances.
