Sometimes We Do Not Realize How Much

We Must Learn To Cast Off Our Anxieties Because We Have So Many Of Them. The World Destroys Spiritual Life By Generating Constant Anxiety. Jesus Said That The Life Of The Gospel Is Choked Out By The Cares Of This World. We Know This To Be True Yet We Are More Chained And Tethered To The World Than Ever Before In The Human Race.

Passion For Our Work Is Not Usually A Subterranean Volcano Waiting To Erupt...it Is A Muscle That Gets Strengthened A Little Each Day As We Show Up - As We Do What Is Expected Of Us, And Then Some.

There Are Dozens Of References To God In The Scriptures For Every One To The Figure Of Satan. This Reflects A Sometimes Forgotten Theological Truth That The Devil Is By No Means God’s Counterpart. He Is A Creature, Not The Creator.

It's Better To Have The Faith To Embrace Reality With All Its Pain Than To Cling To The False Comfort Of A Painless Fantasy.

For Many Of Us The Great Danger Is Not That We Will Renounce Our Faith. It Is That We Will Become So Distracted And Rushed And Preoccupied That We Will Settle For A Mediocre Version Of It.
