“When we believe in Jesus Christ we are united to him. We are “in him,” as Paul says repeatedly. This means that what is true of Jesus is true of us. Because he has the perfect and secure access of an obedient child to the Father, so now do we. “If the Father always hears the Son, then he always hears those who, in Christ, are his sons.”190 When we pray in Jesus’ name, therefore, we do so with supreme confidence and yet humble dependence on unmerited grace.”

“Few of us are tempted today to dream too big. Rather, our vision shrinks to the size of our limited experience. Yet all things are possible for those who believe in the God who created the heavens and the earth. In our disbelief, we can ask God for inspiration to believe. Then he may give us a vision of divine size.”

“We are not called to choose between a Christian life based on truth and doctrine or a life filled with spiritual power and experience. They go together.”
― Timothy Keller, Prayer: Experiencing Awe and Intimacy with God

“Leaders see everything with a leadership bias. Their focus is on mobilizing people and leveraging resources to achieve their goals rather than on using their own individual efforts. Leaders who want to succeed maximize every asset and resource they have for the benefit of their organization. For that reason, they are continually aware of what they have at their disposal.”
