God permits what He hates in order to accomplish something that He loves.
Amazing, isn't it, that our prayers...can move the very heart of God who created the universe?
God cares most not about making us comfortable, but about teaching us to hate our transgressions and to grow up spiritually to love him.
God doesn't just give us grace; He gives us Jesus, the Lord of grace.
There is nothing that moves a loving father's soul quite like his child's cry.
God always seems bigger to those who need him most. And suffering is the tool he uses to help us need him more.
