“Why would we need to experience the Comforter if our lives are already comfortable?”

My existence was not random, nor was it an accident. God knew who He was creating, and He designed met for a specific work.

Only the Holy Spirit can give you the power to not think about yourself, to set you free from yourself.

Life is about Jesus. We are not here to tell our story, but His.

Marriage is one of the most humbling, sanctifying journeys you will ever be a part of. It forces us to wrestle with our selfishness and pride. But it also gives us a platform to display love and commitment.

I’ve got this amazing relationship with God that is better than life, itself, so marvelous, so wonderful that everything else can fall apart and I’m okay.

The God who loans you life sees your every move, hears each word you speak, knows your every thought. You are seen by God. Noticed. Known.

The disciples obey because that’s what people do when someone rises from the dead and gives instructions.

The point of your life is to point to Him. Whatever you are doing, God wants to be glorified, because this whole thing is His.

We live in a time when Christians need to be told that they are supposed to live like Christ. That’s Weird.

He wants all or nothing. The thought of a person calling himself a ‘Christian’ without being a devoted follower of Christ is absurd.

Do you love this God who is everything, or do you just love everything He gives you?

If God cared only about religious activities, then the Pharisees would have been heroes of the faith.

Grace is when you should be totally punished but are blessed for no reason.

Where it gets weird is that nowadays there are millions of people on this earth who call themselves followers of Jesus, but their lives look nothing like His, and they’re not obeying the things that He called them to do.

In our world, where hundreds of things distract us from God, we have to intentionally and consistently remind ourselves of Him.

We have got to make disciples. Fun nights and pizza nights are not going to sustain us.

The most human thing we can do is comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.

I am very comfortable travelling and going into other territories.

In Chicago, you know you got beef with everybody. In Atlanta, you’re chilling, but you don’t get too comfortable. Like, if I go to the store, it’s not like anybody’s gonna come out shooting at me.

There are people in every time and every land who want to stop history in its tracks. They fear the future, mistrust the present, and invoke the security of the comfortable past which, in fact, never existed.

I feel much more comfortable either up in a tree, or underwater. That’s where I feel the most zen.

Definitely for me and my sister, wherever we are the most comfortable is where the best music’s going to be made.

It’s a little uncomfortable doing love scenes in armor, but, you know, when the heat’s on, the heat’s on.

I don’t dream – only if I’m uncomfortable or I’m going through something.
