Wondering
“We are not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us. We are wondering how painful the best will turn out to be.”
C.S. Lewis
Never Fails
“A man’s heart never fails to deceive him when he places his trust in it.”
John Owen
Ultimate Satisfaction
“Ultimate satisfaction is not in a lover, a landscape, or a livelihood; although they may rightly please us, they will pass. That which is eternal and on which the soul must rest is “higher up” and “further back” . . . than those things we presently relish, and it can be provided only by the One who is able to do more than we would ask or even think.”
Bryan Chapell
Riches of God
“The riches of God are the kindness and mercy provided through the blood of Christ, which has redeemed us from the debt of our sin.”
Bryan Chapell
Too Dead
“We are too dead to be the source of our salvation; we are too weak to be the maintainers of our salvation; we are too finite to be the eternal stewards of our salvation. The magnitude and magnificence of what our salvation involves indicate that it must be entirely a gift of God’s grace.”
Bryan Chapell
Love Another
“You who cannot love another because of his imperfections have never yet seen your own face in the mirror.”
Thomas Watson
Drop Thankfulness
“When God has a rod in his hand, a godly man will have a psalm in his mouth. The devil’s smiting of Job was like striking a musical instrument; he sounded forth praise. . . . When God’s spiritual plants are cut and bleed, they drop thankfulness; the saints’ tears cannot drown their praises.”
Thomas Watson
