Michael Card quotes about
comprehension humans brokenness
To allow myself to be loved by God in my deepest brokenness is to experience a love that defies human comprehension.
jesus real father
One of the most important lessons the Lord has taught me is that you are not your gift. That is, you are not defined by what you do or create. Jesus is a wonderful example of this. He would not allow the crowd to define Him by His considerable gifts, even though they tried to do so. Jesus always points away from Himself and His gifts and thereby wins praise for the Father. We are not our gifts. We are called to give more. Like Jesus, we are called to give ourselves. That is the real purpose behind our gifts; they are vehicles for giving the self.
motivation powerful grace
To know that God loves us in the state of grace or disgrace is the most powerful motivation to respond with the aid of grace to His loving call.
love-is inner-beauty looks
To be rooted in love is to look beyond surface appearances to see the inner beauty in others often disfigured by sin.
jesus routine-life people
Most incredible, however, are the times we know Christ is with us in the midst of our daily, routine lives. In the middle of cleaning the house or driving somewhere in the pick-up, He stops us. . . in our tracks and makes His presence known. Often it's in the middle of the most mundane task that He lets us know He is there with us. We realize, then, that there can be no "ordinary" moments for people who live their lives with Jesus.

The defender was actually blocking my view. So I didn't see it until the very end, when it was actually in the net. I was kind of surprised. I thought I'd give it a try. I went far post (to score).
