I don’t have to worry about not meeting His expectations. God will ensure my success in accordance with His plan, not mine.
FRANCIS CHANI don’t have to worry about not meeting His expectations. God will ensure my success in accordance with His plan, not mine.
FRANCIS CHANThe fact is, I need God to help me love God. And if I need His help to love Him, a perfect being, I definitely need His help to love other, fault-filled humans.
FRANCIS CHANThe Bible teaches that true joy is formed in the midst of the difficult seasons of life.
FRANCIS CHANWe often think of prayer as a means to an end. Prayer is the goal.
FRANCIS CHANHaving faith often means doing what others see as crazy.
FRANCIS CHANGod never breaks His promises.
FRANCIS CHANHas your relationship with God changed the way you live your life?
FRANCIS CHANWorry implies that we don’t quite trust God is big enough, powerful enough, or loving enough to take care of what’s happening in our lives.
FRANCIS CHANOur greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don’t really matter.
FRANCIS CHANIf God cared only about religious activities, then the Pharisees would have been heroes of the faith.
FRANCIS CHANGod doesn’t want religious duty. He doesn’t want a distracted, half-hearted, ‘Fine, I’ll read a chapter, now are You happy?’ attitude. God wants His word to be a delight to us, so much that we meditate on it day and night.
FRANCIS CHANHe wants all or nothing. The thought of a person calling himself a ‘Christian’ without being a devoted follower of Christ is absurd.
FRANCIS CHANDo you know that nothing you do in this life will ever matter, unless it is about loving God and loving the people he has made?
FRANCIS CHANWhen I am consumed by my problems-stressed out about my life, my family, and my job-I actually convey the belief that I think the circumstances are more important than God’s command to always rejoice.
FRANCIS CHANChristians are like manure: spread them out and they help everything grow better, but keep them in one big pile and they stink horribly.
FRANCIS CHANWe never grow closer to God when we just live life. It takes deliberate pursuit and attentiveness.
