Do not expect God always to give you His thrilling minutes, but learn to live in the domain of drudgery by the power of God.

Adam was created to be the friend and companion of God, he was to have dominion over all the life in the air and earth and sea, but one thing he was not to have dominion over, and that was himself.

The greatest word of Jesus to His disciples is abandon

Our Lord never referred to unanswered prayer. He taught that prayers are always answered: “Everyone who asks receives”. And He implied that prayers are answered rightly because of the heavenly Father's wisdom: “Your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him”.

And it is not repentance that saves me — repentance is only the sign that I realize what God has done through Christ Jesus.
