“Good writers don’t moralize, nor do they preach, but they do create longing for the true and the beautiful, and that is why you must write with Christ at the center of your reason for writing. That does not mean that every book must be a retelling of Luke’s gospel, however, every worthy book written by a Christian will direct readers away from self, and sin, and put them on a quest for God and his gospel. Create longing for these things.”
― Douglas Bond

“God never witholds from His child that which His love and wisdom call good. God's refusals are always merciful -- "severe mercies" at times but mercies all the same. God never denies us our hearts desire except to give us something better.”
― Elisabeth Elliot

“No matter what anyone thinks of us, we live as Christians. Not in our own strength, but in the might and power of Jesus Christ. We do justly. We love mercy. We’re humble. We stop focusing so much on ourselves—our comforts, our dreams and desires—instead focusing on the One who made us and the ones He calls us to serve. We stand for life, rescue and defend the weak and helpless. We aren’t afraid to say something is wrong even when it seems like the whole world applauds it. We forgive. We stand on the Word of God. We’re not interested in the things the world applauds and says is important because we have something better. Jesus. And above all else, we share His truth. Everything we do is for Him. Nothing is more important to us than Him. And we’re willing to give our all for Him.”

“Place your hand over your heart. Feel that? Feel your heart beating? Do you know what that means? It means you are still alive. And if you are still alive, it means there’s still a purpose for your life.”
