    “The only love that won’t disappoint you is one that can’t change, that can’t be lost, that is not based on the ups and downs of life or of how well you live. It is something that not even death can take away from you. God’s love is the only thing like that.”
    Tim Keller

    Miroslav Volf
    “Forgiveness flounders because I exclude the enemy from the community of
    humans even as I exclude myself from the community of sinners. But no one
    can be in the presence of the God of the crucified Messiah for long without
    overcoming this double exclusion — without transposing the enemy from the
    sphere of the monstrous… into the sphere of shared humanity and herself from
    the sphere of proud innocence into the sphere of common sinfulness. When
    one knows [as the cross demonstrates] that the torturer will not eternally
    triumph over the victim, one is free to rediscover that person’s humanity and
    imitate God’s love for him. And when one knows [as the cross demonstrates]
    that God’s love is greater than all sin, one is free to see oneself in the light of
    God’s justice and so rediscover one’s own sinfulness.”

    Arnold Bennett
    “The chief beauty about time
    is that you cannot waste it in advance.
    The next year, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you,
    as perfect, as unspoiled,
    as if you had never wasted or misapplied
    a single moment in all your life.
    You can turn over a new leaf every hour
    if you choose.”
    Arnold Bennett

    “without the power to concentrate that
    is to say, without the power to dictate to the brain its task and to ensure obedience true life is impossible. Mind control is the first element of a full existence.”

    Arnold Bennett
    “If you imagine that you will be able to achieve your ideal by ingeniously planning out a timetable with a pen on a piece of paper, you had better give up hope at once.If you are not prepared for discouragements and disillusions;
    if you will not be content with a small result for a big effort, then do not begin. Lie down again and resume the uneasy doze which you call your existence.”
    Arnold Bennett, How to Live on 24 Hours a Day

    Kosuke Koyama
    “Love has its speed. It is a spiritual speed. It is a different kind of speed from the technological speed to which we are accustomed. It goes on in the depth of our life, whether we notice or not, at three miles an hour. It is the speed we walk and therefore the speed the love of God walks.”
    Kosuke Koyama, Three Mile an Hour God: Biblical Reflections

    D.A. Carson
    “People do not drift toward Holiness. Apart from grace-driven effort, people do not gravitate toward godliness, prayer, obedience to Scripture, faith, and delight in the Lord. We drift toward compromise and call it tolerance; we drift toward disobedience and call it freedom; we drift toward superstition and call it faith. We cherish the indiscipline of lost self-control and call it relaxation; we slouch toward prayerlessness and delude ourselves into thinking we have escaped legalism; we slide toward godlessness and convince ourselves we have been liberated.”
    D.A. Carson

    “Religion is not the place where the problem of man's egotism is automatically solved. Rather, it is there that the ultimate battle between human pride and God's grace takes place. Human pride may win the battle, and then religion can and does become one more instrument of human sin. But if there the self does meet God and His grace, and so surrenders to something beyond its self-interest, then Christian faith can prove to be the needed and rare release from human self-concern.”
    Langdon Brown Gilkey
