If we are deeply moved by the sight of his love for us, it detaches our hearts from other would-be saviors. We stop trying to redeem ourselves through our pursuits and relationships, because we are already redeemed. We stop trying to make others into saviors, because we have a Savior.
Timothy KellerWhile other worldviews lead us to sit in the midst of lifeโs joys, foreseeing the coming sorrows, Christianity empowers its people to sit in the midst of this worldโs sorrows, tasting the coming joy.
