“I never realized how much I've become dependent on human approval until God took it away. I didn't even realize that I was in a self-made prison of human approval and human acceptance. Most of the prisons we live in we are not conscious of. God showed me Jesus plus nothing equals everything. And everything minus Jesus equals nothing. That set me free.” HumansMadeSelfJesusRealizingAcceptanceConsciousPrisonDependentPlusApprovalSelf MadeMinus Author:Tullian Tchividjian
“You can't expect to be on MTV and critique George Bush. You can't expect to be on BET or the cover of 'The Source' advocating Jesus Christ or Buddha or Hindu Krishna or Moses.

“Which are the people who have influenced us most? Not the ones who thought they did, but those who had not the remotest notion that they were influencing us. In the Christian life, the implicit is never conscious, if it is conscious it ceases to have this unaffected loveliness which is the characteristic of the touch of Jesus. We always know when Jesus is at work because He produces in the commonplace something that is inspiring.” PeopleIfsKnowsChristianJesusInfluenceProduceConsciousNotionCeaseChristian LifeCharacteristicsCommonplaceLovelinessImplicit Book:My Utmost for His Highest Classic Edition Source: My Utmost for His Highest Classic Edition
