Every day we need our gaze redirected from ourselves to God.

God is God; you are but one of His creatures. Your only joy is to be found in obeying Him, your true fulfillment is to be found in worshiping Him, your only wisdom is to be found in trusting and knowing Him.

If you desire anything less for yourself than absolute obedience to God, a life of total devotion to the Lord, a life of absolute sin-less-ness - if you desire anything less, you are fighting against God's desire for you.

The true church is too different for the world to tolerate it.

The foundation of worship in the heart is not emotional...it is theological.

Do I learn through dark providences, or simply seem relieved when they are over?

Jesus undid everything that Adam did, and did everything Adam failed to do.
