It is a sweet thing that we serve a dissatisfied God who has destinations in mind for us that we would never choose for ourselves. It really is a good thing that he will not be satisfied until he has gotten us exactly where he created us and re-created us to be. Most of us would have been satisfied to stay at home, and many of us would have quit the journey long before it was completed. But our heavenly Father won't give up until each one of his children has completed the journey.
Paul David TrippSin is much more than doing the wrong thing. It begins withloving, worshiping, and serving the wrong thing.
Paul David TrippIf you don't keep the eyes of your heart focused on the paradise that is to come, you will try to turn this poor fallen world into the paradise it will never be.
Paul David TrippWe are called by God to do theology, that is, to live our lives with a moment-by-moment consciousness of God.
