The Lord Is Kind. He Is Good

It Was Becoming Clearer And Clearer That If I Wanted To Come To The End Of My Life And Not Say, “i’ve Wasted It!” Then I Would Need To Press All The Way In, And All The Way Up, To The Ultimate Purpose Of God And Join Him In It. If My Life Was To Have A Single, All-satisfying, Unifying Passion, It Would Have To Be God’s Passion.

I Will Not Waste My Life! I Will Finish My Course And Finish It Well. I Will Display The Gospel Of The Grace Of God In All I Do. I Will Run My Race To The End.” - Paul

The Thought Of Building A Life Around Minimal Morality Or Minimal Significance—a Life Defined By The Question, “what Is Permissible?”—felt Almost Disgusting To Me. I Didn’t Want A Minimal Life. I Didn’t Want To Live On The Outskirts Of Reality. I Wanted To Understand The Main Thing About Life And Pursue It.

To Be A Christian Is To Move Toward Need, Not Comfort.

The Assurance Of The Believer Is Not That God Will Save Him Even If He Stops Believing, But That God Will Keep Him Believing--god Will Sustain You In Faith, He Will Make Your Hope Firm And Stable To The End. He Will Cause You To Persevere.
