Quote by J. I. Packer

“We must learn to measure ourselves, not by our knowledge about God, not by our gifts and responsibilities in the church, but by how we pray and what goes on in our hearts. Many of us, I suspect, have no idea how impoverished we are at this level. Let us ask the Lord to show us.”

We are not always conscious of Jesus keeping us in perfect joint with God, but if we are obeying Him, He always is.”
