God has ordained that His people live by promises and not by explanations.

Some of your greatest blessings come with patience.

Material wealth is either a window through which we see God or a mirror in which we see ourselves.

If you take care of yourself and walk with integrity, you may be confident that God will deal with those who sin against you. Above all, don't give birth to sin yourself, rather, pray for those who persecute you. God will one day turn your persecution into praise.

When you and I hurt deeply, what we really need is not an explanation from God but a revelation of God. We need to see how great God is; we need to recover our lost perspective on life. Things get out of proportion when we are suffering, and it takes a vision of something bigger than ourselves to get life's dimensions adjusted again

The school of suffering never graduates any students, so ask God to teach to you the lessons He wants you to learn.

We do not understand and then obey: that is instruction. We obey by faith, and then we understand: that is illumination.
