“There is a time when every person who encounters Jesus, who believes Jesus is the Son of God, decides that they will spend their life following Him. Some people, like the Apostle Paul, make this decision the minute they meet Him, the minute they become a Christian. Others, like the Apostle Peter, endure years of half-hearted commitment and spiritual confusion before leaping in with all their passion. Still others may enjoy some benefits of God's love and grace without entering into the true joy of a marriage with their maker.” PeopleYearsBelieveMayPersonsStillsChristianSpiritualJoyPassionJesusEnjoyDecisionHalfGraceMinutesSonBenefitsCommitmentEndureFollowingConfusionEncountersMakersPeterEnteringHeartedApostlesGod's LoveTrue JoyApostle PaulHalf Hearted Book:Miller 3-in-1: Blue Like Jazz, Through Painted Deserts, Searching for God Source: Miller 3-in-1: Blue Like Jazz, Through Painted Deserts, Searching for God
“What I'm most deeply grateful for is that God's love for us, approval of us, and commitment to us does not ride on our resolve but on Jesus' resolve for us. The gospel is the good news announcing Jesus' infallible devotion to us despite our inconsistent devotion to Him. The gospel is not a command to hang on to Jesus; it's a promise that no matter how weak and unsuccessful our faith and efforts may be, God is always holding on to us.” MayDoeMatterJesusEffortPromiseNewsCommitmentWeakGratefulDevotionCommandDespiteResolveApprovalGood NewsHolding OnGod's LoveInfallibleInconsistentUnsuccessfulAnnouncing Author:Tullian Tchividjian
“As to his gospel, Jesus Christ came into the world as the image of the invisible God to communicate to us that not only did we not need to be afraid of God, but that God is more for us than we are ourselves or one another. God's love is infinite, and unstoppable, and will win!” WorldNeedsJesusWinningChristLove IsJesus ChristInfiniteCommunicateInvisibleGod's LoveUnstoppable Author:Richard Rohr
“You are not called to believe in your love to God, but in God's love to you! Do not argue, 'I cannot love God! I have striven to my uttermost to do so, but have failed in all my endeavors, until in despair I have abandoned the thought and relinquished the attempt.' Be it so- no effort of your own can strike a spark of love to God from your heart. Nor does God demand the task at your hands. All that He requires of you is faith in His love, as embodied and expressed in Jesus Christ to poor sinners.” BelieveHeartDoeHandsJesusChristPoorEffortDemandDespairJesus ChristTasksStrikesArguingGod LoveSinnerEndeavorSparksAbandonedBelieve In YouHis LoveGod's Love Author:Octavius Winslow
