“Every single emotion you have should be processed in prayer.”

This is the humbling truth that lies at the heart of Christianity. We love to be our own saviors. Our hearts love to manufacture glory for themselves.

When Jesus looked down from the cross, he didn’t think “I am giving myself to you because you are so attractive to me.”

This leads to deep humility and deep confidence at the same time. It undermines both swaggering and sniveling. I cannot feel superior to anyone, and yet I have nothing to prove to anyone. I do not think more of myself nor less of myself. Instead, I think of myself less.

Pride is the carbon-monoxide of Sin. It silently and slowly kills you without you even knowing.

A life of gratitude to God for being saved is far more pleasing than a life based on self-righteousness over being good.

There are some needs only you can see. There are some hands only you can hold. There are some people only you can reach.

Jesus didn’t come to tell us the answers to the questions of life, he came to be the answer.

Legalistic remorse says, “I broke God’s rules,” while real repentance says, “I broke God’s heart.”

The Bible’s purpose is to show you how God’s grace breaks into your life against your will and saves you from the sin and brokenness otherwise you would never be able to overcome…

The more you understand how your salvation isn’t about your behavior, the more radically your behavior will change.

If God is not at the center of your life, something else is.

When we worry we are saying, ‘I know the way my life is supposed to go, and God’s not getting it right’.

The Gospel is good news not good advice. Advice = what we should do. News = report of what was done for us.

God became someone we could hurt. Why? To get us back… No other religion-whethe r secularism, Greco-Roman paganism, Eastern religion, Judaism, or Islam-believes God became breakable or suffered or had a body.

Christ did not suffer so you wouldn’t suffer. He suffered so when you suffer you will become like Him.

Yet at the very same time we are more loved and accepted in Jesus Christ than we ever dared hope.

Harriet Tubman is the perpetuation of a “Super Soul Sunday” every day.

Now I remember every time I was with Shouji I felt better. You hugged me secretly with your heart, didn’t you? Now I want you to embrace me with all that warmth, with all your strength.

Mom loved my brother more. Not that she didn’t love me – I felt the wash of her love every day.

Success isn’t winning every time. A lot of different factors go into every race, and you can’t control all of them.

I wanted to be more hands on. Otherwise, every time you finish acting in a movie you have to almost go and beg people for the next job.

Every day we hear about a new invention here and there and they are reducing considerably their consumption of oil.

Its your battle – either victory or martyrdom.

In order to learn, comprehend and rediscover that I can be and I want to be better at every moment.
