“Instead of whining, try lamenting.”
― Christ and Calamity: Grace and Gratitude in the Darkest Valley
― Christ and Calamity: Grace and Gratitude in the Darkest Valley
“The Christian life is upside down. It follows the pattern of Jesus’ cross. As he won by losing, so we live by dying. In his cross and by his death he won life for us all. So upon his invitation we follow Jesus even though it may bring us suffering, misery, and loss.”

― Christ and Calamity: Grace and Gratitude in the Darkest Valley
“In winning, you lose—but in losing for Jesus’ sake, you win. You’ll be humbled—but Jesus lifts up the lowly. In giving you receive; in pardoning you are pardoned. And in dying you are born to eternal life.”

“Yet joy remains even when happiness fades. No matter the circumstance, Christians who plant their hope in God can harvest genuine joy in the rocky soil of adversity or in the deepest, darkest valley of pain.”
