Where Feelings For God Are Dead, Worship

My Paradise: With Christ. Not Sinning. No Pain. New Earth. Precious In That Order.

Taken As A Whole, The Story Of Ruth Is One Of Those Signs. It Was Written To Give Us Encouragement And Hope That All The Perplexing Turns In Our Lives Are Going Somewhere Good. They Do Not Lead Off A Cliff. In All The Setbacks Of Our Lives As Believers, God Is Plotting For Our Joy.

We Cannot Know What Prayer Is For Until We Know That Life Is War.

If You Don't Feel Strong Desires For The Manifestation Of The Glory Of God, It Is Not Because You Have Drunk Deeply And Are Satisfied. It Is Because You Have Nibbled So Long At The Table Of The World. Your Soul Is Stuffed With Small Things, And There Is No Room For The Great.

Obedience Does Not Consist In Paying God Back And Thus Turning Grace Into A Trade. Obedience Comes From Trusting In God For More Grace - Future Grace - And Thus Magnifying The Infinite Resources Of God's Love And Power.
