Francis Chan quotes about
There are just certain times I sense the Lord is wanting me to write, and so I write.
Jesus didn't say that if you wanted to follow Him you could do it in a lukewarm manner. He said, 'Take up your cross and follow Me.'
People who are obsessed with Jesus live lives that connect them with the poor in some way or another. Obsessed people believe that Jesus talked about money and the poor so often because it was really important to Him.
I want to train my kids so where they are the only believers they can stand on their own two feet and teach others.
I could be wrong about salvation. I could be wrong about a lot of things.
Heavenly Father, thank You so much for Your grace. Your forgiveness is SO good that I struggle with believing it at times. Thank You for rescuing me from myself and giving me Your Holy Spirit. Your love is better than life.
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.
...when we are loving, we can't sin.
We often think of prayer as a means to an end. Prayer is the goal.
...you have to stop loving and pursuing Christ in order to sin.
Do you understand that it's impossible to please God in any way other than wholehearted surrender?
We are so used to multi-tasking. 2014 was probably the most productive year of my life...But I noticed during the last couple of months when I would get alone with God it was hard to do one thing at a time.
Multi-tasking is keeping me from whole-hearted worship.
This could all end at any moment...Therefore, be self-controlled.
