To pray is to accept that we are, and always will be, wholly dependent on God for everything.
Timothy KellerGrace is the free, unmerited favor of God, working powerfully on the mind and heart to change lives.
Timothy KellerLove without truth is sentimentality; it supports and affirms us but keeps us in denial about our flaws. Truth without love is harshness; it gives us information but in such a way that we cannot really hear it. God's saving love in Christ, however, is marked by both radical truthfulness about who we are and yet also radical, unconditional commitment to us. The merciful commitment strengthens us to see the truth about ourselves and repent. The conviction and repentance moves us to cling to and rest in God's mercy and grace.
Timothy KellerGod takes our misery and suffering so seriously that he was willing to take it on himself.
