“Because love is only “amazing” to those who don’t think they deserve it—and the only way you will come to grips with your unworthiness of God’s love is when you begin to comprehend His holiness.”
― Jonny Ardavanis, Consider the Lilies: Finding Perfect Peace in the Character of God

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

“Yet I still dare to hope when I remember this: 22 The faithful love of the LORD never ends![*] His mercies never cease. 23 Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. 24 I say to myself, “The LORD is my inheritance; therefore, I will hope in him!”
