Famous Craig D. Lounsbrough Quotes

“Christmas is the great leveler. For we might sit in lofty positions of prestige and power, or we might sit huddled in some back alley with nothing but a few scraps of food and a handful of tattered garments. We can steer nations or know nothing of nations or steering. We can possess the assorted holdings of a vast portfolio, or we can hold nothing but that which is in our hands. Despite our station in life, whether it be lofty or lowly, the need for salvation escapes none of us, is offered to all of us, and will determine the destiny of each of us.”

“Treasures are hidden away in quiet places.  They speak in soft tones and often become silenced as we approach.  They don’t beg to be found, but embrace us if we do happen to find them.  They are the product of completely ordinary circumstances unfolding in wonderfully extraordinary ways.  They are found hidden in the nooks and crannies of our existence; all around us if we quit allowing our attention to be captivated by that which is noisy and listen for that which is quiet and still.”

“I will become discouraged and often I deeply lament of the fallenness that presses down in ever-darkening swells all around me. But I have learned that to be discouraged in the face of sin running rampant is simply my humanity finding itself vexed to exhaustion as I grapple with the wonder of ‘what could be’ as held against the depravity of ‘what is.’ Yet what I’ve learned is that discouragement is fortitude in the making, for God knows that to seize the vision of how good things can be we must first experience the wretchedness of how bad they can become. Only then will we understand the gravity of our mission and the power of goodness to achieve it.”

“Jesus is waiting for you to realize that the devastating pain of your story holds within its pages the perfect nouns and just the right verbs. And if you lay those nouns and verbs before Jesus, He will arrange them into a story so gloriously mind-boggling that you will be driven to give Him the whole of your story so that there is never a word that He is not in possession of.”
