Grace is God satisfying our souls with His Son so that we're ruined for anything else!

The New Testament never once warns us that humbly seeking and praying for spiritual gifts will bring anything other than a blessing.

God loves to glorify himself by suspending his gifts and blessings on our asking him for them. We should never presume to receive from God apart from prayer what he's clearly told us in Scripture will be ours only through prayer.

Where there is no fruit, there may be no root.

This is the glory and miracle of grace, that God, through the Holy Spirit, is able to transform a stubborn, rebellious, and unbelieving will into a passionate, obedient, believing will without violating the integrity of the individual or diminishing the voluntary nature of one's decision to trust Christ for salvation.

Worship is first and foremost a feasting on all that God is for us in Jesus... [One] in which God is the host, the cook, the waiter, and the meal itself.

Grace ceases to be grace if God is compelled to bestow it in the presence of human merit.
