Christ lived the life we could not live and took the punishment we could not take to offer the hope we cannot resist.
Max LucadoTo see sin without grace is despair. To see grace without sin is arrogance. To see them in tandem is conversion.
Max LucadoFear results in fight or flight. Anxiety creates doom and gloom. Fear is the pulse that pounds when you see a coiled rattlesnake in your front yard. Anxiety is the voice that tells you, Never, ever, for the rest of your life, walk barefooted through the grass. There might be a snake...somewhere.
