Paul welcomed hearbreak, disillusionment and tribulation for only one reason - - these things kept him immovable in his devotion to the gospel of God.

The truth is we have nothing to fear and nothing to overcome because He is all in all and we are more than conquerors through Him.

If we believe in Jesus, it is not what we gain but what He pours through us that really counts. God’s purpose is not simply to make us beautiful, plump grapes, but to make us grapes so that He may squeeze the sweetness out of us.

One of the greatest snares is the number of good things we might do. Jesus Christ never did the good things He might have done, He did everything He ought to do because He had His eye fixed on His Father's will and He sacrificed Himself for His Father.

If I obey Jesus Christ in the seemingly random circumstances of life, they become pinholes through which I see the face of God.

Never make a principle out of your experience. Allow God to be as creative with others as He is with you.

Never look for justice in this world, never cease to give it.
